https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/alerting/notifications/#list-of-supported-notifiers says it supports Discord. TC supports Grafana, Grafana supports Discord, ergo TC supports Discord ? 😄

Hmm. Can you view DBErrors.log from Grafana, or indeed from Discord?

https://www.influxdata.com/blog/contributing-third-party-flux-packages-a-discord-endpoint-flux-function/ is another way to send data from InfluxDB to Discord.

And here's a little example showing the power of Grafana: image
