📋Embed copier

The quickest way to build a template for a monitor bot is to start from a real embed it posted. But the bot's embeds often live in a cook group or someone else's server, where you can't add a webhook or see the raw JSON. The embed copier solves that: from inside Discord, you send any embed you can see to your Shippified workspace. It's saved as a sample, and you load it into the template builder with one click.

The embed copier doesn't create orders. It only collects samples for building custom templates. To import checkouts, point your bot at a webhook URL instead (see Connect Discord monitor bots).

Two ways to copy

Both send to the same place, and both use the same submission URL.

The Apps menu is quicker because you don't need to copy a message link. The embed-copier bot is useful when you can't add the Shippified bot to a server but its admins will add the embed-copier bot.

Before you start

• A Shippified account.

• In the server you want to copy from: one of the two bots added, which needs someone with permission to add apps (usually Manage Server).

• For /copy: the embed-copier bot needs View Channel and Read Message History in the channel the embed is in.

Step 1: Get your submission URL

1. Open the Developer tab

   In the sidebar, click Settings, then the Developer tab. Scroll to Embed Copier.

2. Copy the URL

   Under Submission URL (called Step 2 — Submission URL when an invite button is shown above it), click the copy icon (Copy URL) next to the address. The icon briefly turns into a tick to show it's copied.

The URL looks like this:

https://shippified.net/api/embed-copier/<secret>/submit

The <secret> part is a long random code unique to your workspace. It's created the first time you open this section.

Step 2: Link your Discord account

You do this once per Discord account. Both bots save the URL against your Discord account, not against the server, so it works in every server where the bot is.

/set-url url:https://shippified.net/api/embed-copier/<secret>/submit

/setshippified url:https://shippified.net/api/embed-copier/<secret>/submit

Both bots only accept a URL that ends in /api/embed-copier/<secret>/submit. Anything else gets "That doesn't look like a Shippified submission URL…".

Step 3: Copy an embed

Other embed-copier bot commands

What gets copied

Only the first embed on the message: its title, description, fields, footer, author, images and colour. The rest of the message and the webhook's username aren't copied.

Step 4: Build a template from the sample

1. Open the template builder

   Go to Templates, choose Webhook, and click Build template. Or open one of your existing webhook templates with Edit template.

2. Check the source

   Make sure Source is Webhook JSON. Load from Discord only appears for webhook templates.

3. Load the sample

   Next to Sample payload, click Load from Discord and pick a sample under Submitted samples. Each shows its name, the server it came from (for /copy) and when it was sent.

The builder replaces the current sample with the embed, wrapped the way a real webhook payload looks:

{
  "embeds": [
    {
      "title": "Successful Checkout",
      "fields": [
        { "name": "Product", "value": "Wireless Earbuds Pro" },
        { "name": "Order", "value": "||912000111222||" }
      ],
      "footer": { "text": "Lumen Monitors v3.2" }
    }
  ]
}

Because the embed is always the first item, JSON paths start with embeds[0], for example embeds[0].footer.text. From here, add detection rules and field mappings as described in Custom templates. If you haven't copied anything yet, the picker explains how to set up the bot.

Manage your samples

All your samples are listed under Settings → Developer → Embed Copier, below Submitted samples. The line under the heading counts them: "3 samples stored. Load any of them from the Templates builder." With none, it says "Nothing here yet. In Discord, right-click a bot embed → Apps → Copy embed to Shippified (Shippified bot), or run /copy <message_link> (embed-copier bot), and it'll show up here."

Each sample shows its name, the server (after "from") and the person who copied it (after "by") when known, the date and time it arrived, and these controls:

Deleting your Shippified account removes all your samples. If you signed in with Discord, it also removes the submission URL saved for that Discord account. See Account and privacy.

Rotate the URL

Rotate the submission URL if it may have leaked, or to cut off every Discord account that's linked to it.

1. Rotate

   Click the circular-arrow icon (Rotate URL) next to the submission URL. Shippified asks Rotate your submission URL?: "The bot will need the new one — the old URL stops working immediately."

2. Confirm

   Click Rotate URL. The box shows the new URL.

3. Relink

   Copy the new URL and run /set-url or /setshippified again with it (step 2). Anyone else who linked the old URL has to be given the new one.

Limits

Security

• The submission URL is the only thing that lets a sample into your workspace. Anyone who has it can add samples, but can't read your samples, orders or anything else.

• Samples never become orders, so a leaked URL can't change your order data or stats. The worst it can do is add up to 30 unwanted samples a minute and push your real ones out of the 50 kept. Rotate the URL if that happens.

• The bots' replies are private to you (Discord shows them as "Only you can see this").

• The Shippified bot asks only for Send Messages and Embed Links. The embed-copier bot asks to view channels, send messages and read message history, which it needs to fetch the message you link.
