Setting up alerts for critical application issues is essential, and tools like New Relic make it easy to monitor application performance.
Integrating New Relic Alerts with Discord is possible by using a workaround involving AWS EventBridge and Lambda to convert the payload to a Discord-compatible format.
However, after multiple failed attempts, it was discovered that a simpler and more efficient solution was to use Discord Webhooks the right way, by including the required content or embeds in the JSON payload.
By properly structuring the JSON payload and avoiding unnecessary workarounds, New Relic alerts can be seamlessly sent to Discord for real-time notifications.
