Integrating a points system into your Discord server can boost engagement by rewarding users with points for specific reactions to messages. With Absinthe’s API and Zapier, you can automate this process. Here’s a step-by-step guide to set it up!
Log into Zapier, click “Create Zap”, and start by selecting your trigger app.

Choose Discord as the trigger app.

Select “Message Reaction” from the available events and connect your Discord account.

Select the server you want to monitor for reactions.
Zapier will now find a recent reaction to test the trigger. Proceed if successful.

In the next step, choose Absinthe as your action app.

Select “Give Points” as the action event.

Connect your Absinthe account by entering the API key.

Go to the Absinthe GraphQL playground.
Register the event name you want to use for point assignments, then copy and paste the provided query into the GraphQL playground.
mutation RegisterOffChainEvent {
insert_points_config_registered_off_chain_events_one(object: {
event_name: "<your_event_name_to_register>",
description: "<your event description>"
})
{
id
created_at
}
}{
"Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>"
}Map the User ID from Discord as the Account ID in Absinthe.
Ensure the Event Name matches the one registered in Absinthe.

Test your setup to make sure everything works. Once verified, click Publish to activate your new Zap.
By following these steps, you can seamlessly integrate your Discord reactions with Absinthe to reward your users.
