niftyConnect can send Discord notifications only after an administrator configures an incoming Discord webhook URL. When Discord is enabled, the plugin sends the notification subject, notification body, optional webhook username, optional avatar URL, optional thread ID, and relevant event content to Discord’s webhook API so Discord can post the message to the configured channel or thread.

Depending on enabled triggers and templates, this may include site, post, comment, user, security, and WooCommerce order details. php.
