Smart Parsing for Discord

Discord Webhook Tester

Discord interactions must be ACK'd within 3 seconds. HookRay highlights the interaction type, command/component name, member id, and channel — enough to dispatch a handler that fits in that window.

What HookRay Highlights from a Discord Webhook

HookRay: highlighted fields
Interaction Typecritical
type1

1=PING (must echo {type: 1}), 2=APPLICATION_COMMAND, 3=MESSAGE_COMPONENT.

Command Namehigh
data.name"ping"

Slash-command name. For buttons/menus, look at data.custom_id (only present on type=3).

Inner Data Typehigh
data.type1

Subtype within data; tells you how to read the rest.

User IDhigh
member.user.id"123456789"
Channel IDmedium
channel_id"987654321"
webhook.site / raw: full JSON
{
  "type": 1,
  "data": {
    "name": "ping",
    "type": 1
  },
  "member": {
    "user": {
      "id": "123456789",
      "username": "developer"
    }
  },
  "channel_id": "987654321"
}

Same payload, no parsing — you scroll, you scan, you guess.

Discord gotcha: Type 1 (PING) must be responded to with { type: 1 } at endpoint-registration time. Discord pokes the URL with PING and won't approve the webhook until it gets that exact response.
