Discord is a great way to get Netlify notifications! I set up my own private server to collect notifications with my open source projects.
There’s an official guide to set up GitHub notifications on Discord, but I like using it too for other things like monitoring Netlify deployments. Here's how I got it set up.
Solution: webhooks
Discord supports any Slack-compatible webhook. I used this to set up send Netlify notifications to Discord using Slack’s webhook format.
Step 1: Create a webhook in Discord
In Discord’s channel settings, go to “Integrations” and select “Create Webhook”. In the next screen, use “Copy Webhook URL” to copy the URL.
Step 2: Site settings in Netlify
Under Netlify’s “Site settings”, go to “Build & deploy” → “Deploy notifications”.
Step 3: Add a notification
Under the “Outgoing notifications” section, click the “Add notification” button.
Step 4: Choose Slack integration
In the dropdown, select “Slack integration.” (Yes, select “Slack” even if it’s Discord!)
Step 5: Add the URL
Paste the webhook URL and add /slack to the end. Don’t forget to change the “Event to listen for” dropdown.
All done!
New notifications should now show up on Discord.

That does not work anymore, as netlify has changed the slack notification interface... ;-(
