Embedly

The missing link between social media and Discord.

Invite to Discord · Documentation · Website


Share links that actually work, the way they should be.

Embedly replaces Discord's broken native embeds with rich, accurate ones. Paste a supported link in any server or DM and Embedly fetches the content directly: media, stats, reply chains, quote posts, all rendered with Discord's component system.

Using Embedly

There are three ways to trigger an embed.

Messages

Embedly automatically detects and embeds links as they're posted, no command needed. Multiple links in a single message are all processed. The first link gets a reply, and each additional link is sent as a follow-up in the same channel. Once Embedly has posted, Discord's native embed preview is suppressed.

If a link is wrapped in Discord spoiler tags, the embed is spoilered too. Wrap a link in angle brackets to prevent Embedly from embedding it.

Slash command

Use /embed with a URL and optional display flags to manually create a rich embed from any supported link. Available in servers, DMs, and group DMs.

/embed url:<link> [media_only] [source_only] [spoiler]
Option Description
url The link to embed. Must be from a supported platform.
media_only Show only the media, with no text, author, or stats.
source_only Show only the source post. Hides any quoted or replied-to content.
spoiler Wrap the embed in a spoiler. Users must click to reveal it.

Context menu

Right-click any existing message (or long-press on mobile), then go to Apps → Embed Links. Useful if Embedly missed a link, or the message predates Embedly being in the server.
