How it works
- Create a webhook. In your Discord server, open the settings of the channel you want alerts in, choose Integrations, then Webhooks, then New Webhook, and copy its URL. You need permission to manage webhooks in that server. A private server of your own works fine.
- Paste it above and choose an alert. wowfah posts a short message to the channel to confirm the connection.
- Wait for the price. Every time Blizzard publishes new auction data, wowfah checks your alerts and posts when one is met.
| Alert | Fires when | Repeats |
|---|---|---|
| Price drops to | The cheapest buyout is at or under your price | Once, then again after the price has gone back above your target |
| Price rises to | The market price is at or over your price | Once, then again after it has fallen back below |
| New deals | A listing is at least 20% under its usual price and worth your minimum profit | Each deal once per 12 hours, up to 5 per update |
Questions
What is a Discord webhook?
A webhook is a private address that lets a service post messages into one channel of your Discord server. You create it in the channel settings under Integrations, and you can delete it at any time to stop every alert.
How fast are the alerts?
Blizzard publishes new auction house data about once an hour. wowfah checks every five minutes and sends alerts as soon as a new snapshot arrives, so an alert reaches you within about five minutes of the data.
Are Discord alerts free?
Yes. Alerts are free and there is no account to create. Each webhook can hold up to 25 alerts.
How do I stop an alert?
Open this page in the browser you created it in, or follow the manage link that was posted in your channel, and remove the alert. Deleting the webhook in Discord stops everything at once.
