If you’re having trouble getting Alchemy webhooks to work on Discord, it’s likely because Discord webhooks require a specific format that the Alchemy response might not automatically match. Here’s how you can troubleshoot and fix the issue.

Discord Webhook Format

Discord webhooks must follow a predefined format for the data they receive, and the default Alchemy webhook response may not be directly compatible. To resolve this issue, you’ll need to modify the Alchemy response to meet Discord’s format requirements.

Using Zapier to Handle Format Conversion

One of the easiest ways to automatically handle this format conversion is by using a tool like Zapier. Zapier allows you to map the Alchemy webhook data into the format required by Discord, streamlining the process without manual intervention.
