How to create a Discord webhook and extract Id/Token

Follow these steps to create a Discord webhook, copy the webhook URL, and extract the two pieces you’ll need (the numeric webhook ID and the webhook key/token).

I - Create the webhook

1. Open Discord (desktop or web) and go to the server and text channel where you want alerts posted.
2. Click the channel name → Integrations → View Webhooks → New Webhook (or Create Webhook).
3. Give the webhook a name (e.g., Smart Alert Manager ) and optionally set an avatar.
4. Under Channel, confirm the target channel.
5. Click Copy Webhook URL (or Save then Copy Webhook URL). The URL will look like: https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/123456789012345678/AbCDefGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYZ0123456789abcdefGHIjklMn

II - Extract the Webhook ID and Webhook Key (token)

From the webhook URL https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/<WEBHOOK_ID>/<WEBHOOK_TOKEN> :

• Webhook ID = the first path segment after /webhooks/ → e.g. 123456789012345678
• Webhook Key / Token = the second path segment → e.g. AbCDefGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYZ0123456789abcdefGHIjklMn

III - Notes / tips

• Keep the token secret. Anyone with the token can post to the channel.
• To revoke/regenerate the token: channel → Integrations → View Webhooks → select the webhook → click Regenerate URL or Delete and create a new one.
• Discord webhook tokens are longer than MQL5’s single-field limit (63 chars). You may need to split the token into two parts and paste them across the two lines in order — the tool will recombine them when sending.
