Use This Sample Discord Shortcut To Get Started Building Your Own Bot »

While perusing Twitter, I came across a sample shortcut I wanted to save for later – this Discord bot that can post directly to a channel.

From @whatqm:

Just made a discord bot using Apple Shortcuts lol pic.twitter.com/mKSuaZzZkC

While searching Twitter for Shortcuts keywords, I came across this video that demonstrates using Shortcuts to post to a Discord channel as a bot – I’ve been wanting to build my own shortcut to do the same, so I added the sample shortcut linked in the reply and will be testing it out in my own Discord community.

View the full video from the tweet.
