How to make Discord webhook work with automation rules?

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to make Jira send a notification to discord any time an issue's status is changed to "Feedback Needed". This is an obvious notification for QA.

I've found the trigger in automation ("Issue transitioned from "In Progress" to "Feedback Needed") and tried to set this up (see screenshot) with a webhook from Discord/ https://skyhook.glitch.me/ :

However, there is no reaction from Discord. What can I do?

This webhook has been added separately on Jira and it works, but the notifications from there do not allow "status changed to X" as a trigger, nor are the notifications' actual words customizable.

Based in @Cristian answer, I could make my own webhook who deals with more complex syntax.

{
"username": "Jira",
"color": 624876,
"avatar_url": "https://wac-cdn.atlassian.com/dam/jcr:5cae308d-24a4-40d0-8fe2-ce7f46cd7a02/JSW sign-responsive.png",
"content": "

** - {{issue.assignee.displayName}} {{#if(exists(issue.Request participant.displayName))}}{{issue.Request participant.displayName}} acabaram{{/}}{{#if(not(exists(issue.Request participant.displayName)))}} acabou{{/}} de finalizar a tarefa "{{issue.summary.jsonEncode}}"!!!** 🎉🎉🎉:muscle:

**Basicamente ela se referia a** {{issue.description.jsonEncode}}**

e foi resolvida** {{issue.Solution.jsonEncode}}

Com testes feitos por {{issue.Tester.displayName}}

",
"embeds": [
{
"description": "*[👀 Acesse mais informações da tarefa clicando aqui.]({{url}})*",
"color": 624876
}
]
}

Dear all,

I've solved this by writing the custom data in JSON (see example below) and everything worked without third parties.

Might be dumb to y'all but I'm not from IT, so coding is a completely new thing:)

If I try to use the regular Discord webhook (without going through skyhookapi), I get the following error:
