Blocks for Discord OAuth2 authentication and retrieving user information.
Discord Get Current User
What it is
Gets information about the currently authenticated Discord user using OAuth2 credentials.
How it works
This block uses Discord's OAuth2 API to retrieve information about the currently authenticated user. It requires valid OAuth2 credentials that have been obtained through Discord's authorization flow with the identify scope.
The block queries the Discord /users/@me endpoint and returns the user's profile information including their unique ID, username, avatar, and customization settings like banner and accent color.
