For those who want to try it immediately
In this article, we introduce how to integrate using the no-code tool "Yoom". No complicated settings or operations are required, and even non-engineers can easily achieve it. You can start right away with the template below, so please give it a try!
[What is Yoom]
Let's actually set up a flow for automation with Yoom. This time, we will introduce how to set up a workflow to retrieve information from a website daily and notify Discord.
1. Prepare to link Discord's My Apps and browser operations 2. Set the trigger schedule 3. Set up browser operations 4. Set up notifications to Discord
The setup is completed in these four steps, so let's copy the template from the "Try it" banner below.
Please note that browser RPA operations can only be executed up to the testing phase for those without a success plan, but you can try the RPA feature for free for two weeks during the trial period.
How to Create a Flow to Automatically Retrieve Website Information with RPA and Notify Discord
Step 1: Prepare Discord My Apps Integration and Browser Operation
Discord My Apps Integration
Prepare to integrate Yoom with Discord and the Google Chrome extension.
After logging into Yoom, click "My Apps" on the left menu → "+ New Connection", search for Discord, select Discord(v2), and fill in the required fields.
※ Please note that you need to allow usage in incognito mode. ※ If you are setting up a flow that requires account information such as login, you need to register account information from My Apps in advance.
Step 2: Set a Trigger to Start on a Fixed Schedule
Return to the Yoom screen, select "【Copy】Retrieve Website Information Daily and Notify Discord" from the left menu, and choose "When the specified schedule is reached".
You can set a trigger to start when a specific schedule is reached. You can start a flow bot when a specific time is reached, or start it at a specific time every day/week/bi-weekly. For details on Cron settings, check "How to Set Cron Settings".
Step 3: Set Browser Operation
Open "Operate the Browser".
Here, you can set what actions to perform within the specified page.
Specify the URL to access first and click "Start Operation".
When you transition to the edit page, an incognito browser will launch simultaneously. Perform the actions you want to automate on the incognito browser.
Move the cursor to the place you want to click or enter information, and click to display "Apply Action". Select the action you want to perform and click "Add" to execute the content set on the incognito browser.
By repeating the steps of moving the cursor to the place you want to click or enter information > clicking > selecting the appropriate action > entering the setup content and clicking add, you can set the actions you want to perform within the specified page.
Once all items are set, click "Test" to check if it works correctly. If the test is successful, the last item will be reflected as the output.
For detailed setup procedures for browser operations, please check here.
If you want to know about the output, please check "About Output".
Step 4: Set Discord Notification
Open "Send Message" from the Discord icon.
Select the "Send Message" action and click Next.
Next, enter the channel ID. Enter the Discord channel you want to notify.
Set the content to notify Discord in the message content. You can include information obtained from browser operations as output in the message from "Output".
Perform a test from "Test" to confirm that notifications can be sent without issues.
Finally, turn on the trigger to complete the setup!
The flow "Retrieve Website Information Daily and Notify Discord" is complete. Thank you for your hard work on the setup!
Other Automation Examples Using Discord and RPA Features
In addition to the flow introduced this time, you can achieve automation of various tasks by using the APIs of Discord and RPA features. All of them can be used with simple settings, so if you find something interesting, please give it a try!
Automation Examples Using Discord
Transcribe and Summarize Data, and Notify on Discord
AI automatically transcribes audio and further summarizes it according to a specified format (creating minutes), which should help reduce manual work.
Notify on Discord when a schedule is registered
This will allow you to check new schedules on Discord, reducing the chances of missing meetings.
Add/Create Based on Discord Posts

Examples of Automation Using RPA Features
Register in the Company's Core System Using Browser RPA
By using Browser RPA for automatic registration, you can utilize the quoted information and maintain the accuracy of the registration information.
Download and Upload CSV from a Specific Website
Since the data download and upload are automatically completed according to the specified schedule, you may be able to increase the time you can focus on other tasks.
Benefits of Automating Discord with RPA
Benefit 1: Improved Operational Efficiency
By using RPA, you can reliably obtain information from websites at a set time every day. Since it's not a task performed by humans, you can avoid human errors and process information quickly and accurately. Additionally, as RPA executes tasks automatically, team members who originally performed these tasks can allocate their time to other duties, potentially improving overall operational efficiency. This is particularly valuable for tasks that require regular and extensive monitoring of information on a daily basis!
Benefit 2: Real-time Information Sharing
With RPA, you can retrieve information from websites at a set time every day and quickly notify Discord. This allows teams and stakeholders to receive timely information daily, potentially enabling swift decision-making. If you set it up so that notifications are sent to the entire team on Discord, discussions based on that data can be conducted on Discord. Especially in projects or tasks where the freshness of information is crucial, smooth information sharing can positively impact the transition to subsequent tasks.
Conclusion
By automating the retrieval and sharing of information from websites to Discord daily, you can fully automate the process. Reducing manual tasks helps prevent human errors and enables timely and reliable information sharing. This can be a useful tool for improving the operational efficiency of the entire team and making swift decisions.
Yoom can enhance the efficiency of various tasks by combining technologies such as AI, API, RPA, and OCR. Be sure to utilize Yoom to boost your productivity!

I'm in charge of marketing at Yoom.
While automating my own work with Yoom, I am publishing useful blogs to spread the convenience of Yoom to the world.
I have zero programming knowledge, but I succeeded in reducing the time required to zero by automating report creation with Yoom, which used to take about 1 hour every day.
Conventional RPA can only automate simple repetitive tasks, and the setup process was very complicated. With “hyperautomation,” which combines various technologies such as AI, API, RPA, and OCR, it is possible to automate many tasks that could not be realized until now more easily than before.
Most tools simply connect one app to another, leaving the complex tasks to you. Yoom goes much further: From document creation and browser automation to OCR and generative AI, Yoom handles it all seamlessly in one platform.
Why settle for basic integrations? Streamline your entire workflow with Yoom’s powerful hyperautomation.
