I have a scenario that sends messages from my Manychat app to a Discord channel. Some of these messages contain a link.
Is there a way to send a message back to Manychat when a member clicks the link?
In response of him clicking the link I want to send a personalised response in DM to him on Discord.
One step at a time: Is there a trigger when somebody clicks the link?
Welcome to the Make community!
Yes, you can link to a Custom Webhook module’s webhook address.
To do this, you can try using the Webhooks “Custom webhook” module —
Triggers when webhook receives data.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

P.S.: investing some effort into the tutorials in the Make Academy will save you lots of time and frustration using Make!
Thanks @samliew , that helps to some extent.
But the question then arises: how to get the discord id of the member clicking the link? I see no action for that.
You can append the user’s ID as a query parameter to the link, so that when the link is clicked, you know that the user has clicked it as the ID will be passed to the webhook.
If it’s a general link that anyone can access and click, then you can’t do it as a link, but an embed button, which triggers a Discord callback event. This however, is extremely advanced stuff.
Thanks, I’m not that advanced (yet), I’ll find a workaround.
