You can use the option

send-http-url: HTTP report url
and

Yea I seen that but I would want it as discord as all my Services report to me in a discord server and that site might go down later as devs wont support it or keep it up.

Yea there is nothing about a Webhook Tried to see couple of reddits and such but wasnt really able to see much regarding webhook and how to set them up.

a webhook is a process where json data is sent with a HTTP Post. That’s exactly what is doing the http notification Duplicati mechanism. Now you need something on the receiving end to handle the sent data, there is no magic. The duplicati-monitoring site does that, it is a specialized page that knows how to handle the Duplicati notifications. If someone knowing your server do the necessary adaptation, it should work.

Do they have built-in integration? For Duplicati, you could script it, assuming you have some such skills.
Discord Webhooks Guide section on curl should be pretty portable to run in a Duplicati run-script-after.
Example Scripts shows some of what is available to your script. There are other ways, if your skills vary. Customizing a server to Duplicati’s format is still an option, but customizing the sender might be simpler.
Posting duplicati backup events to Slack channel is a similar script, except you’d tailor yours to Discord.

I don’t know if it’s less work, but if you’d prefer replacing scripting with administration, there’s also
dupReport (another third-party tool, but at least it’s installed so will do better if development ends).
This can then feed Apprise which can feed Discord, and a large number of other things, if you like.

Would be cool if there were some instructions how to set up Duplicati with healthchecks.io which then can send relevant info to discord or a ton of other services.

which makes it more interesting, although presumably one would have to read their docs for details.

healthchecks.io seems to have some advanced capabilities – plus extensive instructions on use:

Healthchecks.io Documentation where you can search for words like curl or email, likely matching
Duplicati Reporting options such as the send-http-* and send-mail-* options series respectively.

The simplest interface (no fancy stuff) looks easier than Discord’s, and curl might not be necessary.
A quick search in Duplicati GitHub Issues found an example shell script that might serve as a starter.

EDIT:

Direct links to curl (send-http-url might work too) and email docsumentation at Healthchecks.io.

Maybe Duplicati with https://healthchecks.io/ and integration to Discord?
