Embedly

Slash command

Manually embed a link using /embed.

Use /embed to create a rich embed from any supported link. The command is available in servers, DMs, and group DMs.

/embed url:<link> [media_only] [source_only] [spoiler]

Options

OptionTypeRequiredDescription
urlstringYesThe link to embed. Must be from a supported platform.
media_onlybooleanNoShow only the media — no text, author, or stats. Returns nothing if the post has no media.
source_onlybooleanNoShow only the source post. Hides any quoted or replied-to content.
spoilerbooleanNoWrap the embed in a spoiler. Users must click to reveal it.

Combining flags

source_only is always evaluated first. If both source_only and media_only are set, the embed is stripped of quote and reply context first, and then reduced to media only.
