How to cucorrectly add the variables within “Embed format”?

Resolved

(@michaelmenial)

Many thanks for the plugin

Can you maybe advise how to correctly add the variables within “Embed format”?

Currently I have the following (which is working):

{
    "content": ":loudspeaker: **Neuer Beitrag auf brettspielestammtisch.de**",
    "embeds": [
        {
            "title": "%title%",
            "url": "%link%",
            "author": {
                "name": "%author%",
                "url": "%author_url%",
                "icon_url": "%gravatar%"
            }
        }
    ]
}

If I try to add for example “category” it is not shown in discord when I post a new entry

{
    "content": ":loudspeaker: **Neuer Beitrag auf brettspielestammtisch.de**",
    "embeds": [
        {
            "title": "%title%",
            "category": "%category%",
            "url": "%link%",
            "author": {
                "name": "%author%",
                "url": "%author_url%",
                "icon_url": "%gravatar%"
            }
        }
    ]
}

In https://leovoel.github.io/embed-visualizer/ I also get the following error message:
Unrecognized property “category” in “embeds[0]”

The category variable must be used in the title or content only.

If the field does not exist in the embed visualizer, it may not exist in discord api.

You can do this:

{
   "content":":loudspeaker: **Neuer Beitrag auf brettspielestammtisch.de**",
   "embeds":[
      {
         "title":"%title%",
         "url":"%link%",
         "author":{
            "name":"%author%",
            "url":"%author_url%",
            "icon_url":"%gravatar%"
         },
         "fields":[
            {
               "name":"Category",
               "value":"%category%"
            }
         ]
      }
   ]
}
