Setup Guide
- In Discord: Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook
- Choose the target channel → Copy Webhook URL
- In DBackup: Connections → Channels → New channel → Discord Webhook
- Under Webhook, pick or create a credential profile holding the webhook URL

TIP
Create a dedicated #backups channel to keep notifications separate from general chat.
Message Format
Notifications use rich embeds with colored sidebars:
| Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 🟢 Green | Success (backup complete, restore finished) |
| 🔴 Red | Failure (backup/restore failed, system error) |
| 🔵 Blue | Informational (user login) |
| 🟣 Purple | System (config backup) |
Each embed includes title, description, structured fields (job name, duration, size), and timestamp.
Troubleshooting
401 - Invalid Webhook Token
Verify the webhook URL is complete. Check the webhook hasn't been deleted in Discord → Server Settings → Integrations.
429 - Rate Limited
Too many messages in a short period. Reduce notification frequency - avoid "Always" on high-frequency jobs.
404 - Unknown Webhook
The webhook or channel was deleted. Create a new webhook and update the configuration.
