How to Remove URL Embed in Discord
To remove a URL embed in Discord, wrap your URL in less than <
and greater than >
symbols before posting the image.
When are URL is wrapped in the less than and greater than symbols, the Discord message parser will not post the URL embed widget, but the displayed URL will remain clickable.
Formatting URLs in this manner is more useful when writing Discord bots. If you’re using packages such as Discord.js or Discord.py, you may not want each link your bot posts to also add a URL embed.
