Twitter → Discord alerts you can test for free

How it works

1. 1

   Create an XFlux monitor

   Dashboard → Monitors → add @username and optional keywords.

2. 2

   Create a Discord channel webhook

   Discord: Edit channel → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook → Copy Webhook URL.

3. 3

   Paste into XFlux and Test

   Save the URL on the monitor, then click Test webhook — you should see a message in Discord.

Option A — Discord URL (simplest)

Paste the Discord Incoming Webhook URL into Dashboard → Monitors → Webhook. XFlux detects Discord and POSTs content / embeds Discord understands. For multi-step automation (Sheets, filters), use Make instead: Connect XFlux to Make.com.

@handle posts (optional keyword match)

POST Discord-formatted embed / content

Discord channel message

Option B — Your bot or custom server

Expose an HTTPS route, verify X-XFlux-Signature, then post to Discord with your bot token. Signature details: Webhook docs. Product overview: /twitter-webhook.

// Pseudocode
app.post("/webhooks/xflux", rawBodyMiddleware, (req, res) => {
  if (!verifyHmac(secret, timestamp, rawBody, signature)) {
    return res.status(401).end();
  }
  const event = JSON.parse(rawBody);
  if (event.event === "monitor.hit") {
    discord.channels.send(`@${event.tweet.authorUsername}: ${event.tweet.text}`);
  }
  res.status(200).send("ok");
});

FAQ

Can I paste a Discord webhook URL directly?

Yes. XFlux detects discord.com/api/webhooks/… and sends Discord-formatted messages (no empty-message errors). Make.com or a custom bot are optional.

Which plan do I need for live Discord alerts?

Starter ($19/mo) or higher for live monitor.hit delivery. Free can configure URLs and send test pings.

How do I verify webhooks in my bot?

HMAC-SHA256 over {timestamp}.{raw_body} using the Dashboard signing secret. Discord URLs skip this — Discord does not verify XFlux signatures. See /docs/webhooks.
