Kaneo can post task activity to a Discord channel whenever events occur in a project. This uses Discord’s incoming webhook feature — no bot or OAuth setup required.

​
Create a Discord webhook

  1. Open Discord and go to the channel you want notifications in.
  2. Click the gear icon to open Channel Settings.
  3. Go to Integrations then Webhooks.
  4. Click New Webhook.
  5. Give the webhook a name (e.g. “Kaneo”) and optionally set an avatar.
  6. Click Copy Webhook URL. It will look like:
https://discord.com/api/webhooks/000000000000000000/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
URLs using discordapp.com are also accepted.

​
Connect Discord in Kaneo

  1. Open Settings in the sidebar.
  2. Under Projects, select the project you want to connect.
  3. Open the Integrations tab.
  4. Expand the Discord section.
  5. Paste your webhook URL.
  6. Optionally add a channel name label for your own reference.
  7. Choose which events to subscribe to (see below).
  8. Click Connect.
Once connected you can enable or disable the integration with the toggle, update event subscriptions, or disconnect entirely.

Task priority changedOffA task’s priority is changed
Task title changedOffA task’s title is edited
Task description changedOffA task’s description is edited

You can toggle any combination of these events in the integration settings at any time.

​
Message format

Kaneo sends Discord embed messages with:
  • A title describing the event (e.g. “Task Status Changed”)
  • Task name with a clickable link to the task in Kaneo
  • Fields for project, status, and priority
  • The name of the user who triggered the event
Make sure KANEO_CLIENT_URL is set to your public Kaneo URL so task links work correctly.

​
Updating the webhook

To change the webhook URL after connecting, paste the new URL in the webhook field and click Save Changes. If you leave the field empty, the existing URL is kept.

​
Disconnecting

Click Disconnect to remove the integration. This deletes the stored webhook URL and all event settings for that project. You can reconnect at any time by pasting a new webhook URL.
