1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Daily Messages

To send daily messages to your Discord channel, you first need to set up Pabbly Connect. Start by signing up for a free account on the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Once you have access, click on ‘Create Workflow’ and name it, for example, ‘Send Daily Messages on Discord’.

After naming your workflow, click on ‘Create’. You will see two windows: the trigger window and the action window. The trigger window is where you set the event that starts the automation, while the action window is where you define what happens after the trigger.

2. Scheduling Daily Messages with Pabbly Connect

To schedule daily messages, you will use the scheduling feature of Pabbly Connect. In the trigger window, select ‘Schedule by Pabbly’. It will prompt you to choose how often you want the automation to run. Choose the option for running it every day.

• Select ‘Every Day’ from the dropdown.
• Specify the time you want the message to be sent, e.g., 8 AM.
• Click ‘Save’ to confirm your schedule.

With this setup, your automation will now trigger every day at the specified time, ensuring that your Discord channel receives daily messages consistently.

3. Connecting Discord to Pabbly Connect

Next, you need to connect your Discord account to Pabbly Connect. In the action window, search for ‘Discord’ and select it. Then, choose the action event as ‘Send Channel Message’. Click on ‘Connect’ to establish the connection.

To connect Discord, you will need a webhook URL from your Discord server. Go to your Discord server, click on the down arrow next to the server name, and select ‘Server Settings’. In the left sidebar, go to ‘Integrations’, click on ‘Webhooks’, and then click on ‘Create Webhook’.

• Name your webhook (e.g., ‘Pabbly Webhook’).
• Select the channel where you want to send messages (e.g., ‘Welcome’).
• Copy the webhook URL and return to Pabbly Connect.

Paste the webhook URL into the designated field in Pabbly Connect. This connection will allow Pabbly Connect to send messages to your Discord channel.

4. Crafting Your Daily Message in Pabbly Connect

Now that you have connected Discord to Pabbly Connect, it’s time to craft your daily message. In the message field, input the message you want to send daily. You can format the message using HTML tags for line breaks.

For example, use the <BR> tag to create line breaks in your message. This is essential for formatting your message correctly in Discord. After entering your message, you can name your bot, which will send the message. You can also optionally add a bot icon.

Input your message with <BR> tags for line breaks. Name your bot (e.g., ‘Pabbly Bot’). Optionally add a bot icon URL.

Once everything is set, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. If successful, you will receive a positive response indicating that your message has been sent to your Discord channel.
