Setup Requirements 

You'll also need to fetch your Foreman API credentials. Those can be found by clicking through from your User Menu > My Account > API Information section.

 

Receiving Alerts via Direct Message

Once your triggers are configured to send alerts to Discord, join our Discord server. While you're there, feel free to introduce yourself to our community!

On our server, you'll see Discord Todd.  He's always online:

 

To begin the setup process, in a private message, send him fm!help

You'll need to register your Discord account with Todd.  To do that, send: fm!start

Send fm!register and enter your client ID and API key that you obtained in the Getting Started steps above.  As an example, assuming a client ID of 1024 and an API key of 39bffdea-2169-46eb-9407-adf8ba678c3f, I'd enter fm!register 1024 39bffdea-2169-46eb-9407-adf8ba678c3f.

From here on out, depending on the triggers created in Foreman, Todd will let you know when things happen:

To stop the Discord alerting, send him a fm!forget.
