Discord links breaking

Are your FiveM images
stopping loading without warning?

Uploading images to Discord and copying the link seems easy — until the message is deleted, the link expires or Discord changes its policies. For FiveM scripts you need URLs that last.

The problem with Discord CDN

Why Discord is not a CDN

Discord is a community tool, not a hosting service. Using it as a CDN has direct consequences for your FiveM scripts.

Links expire

Since 2023, Discord added expiration tokens to all CDN links. An image that worked yesterday may stop loading tomorrow without you doing anything.

If the message is deleted, the image disappears

The image link is tied to the original Discord message. If someone deletes that message, the channel, or the server — the image stops existing and your script breaks.

Against Discord's Terms of Service

Discord's ToS explicitly prohibit using their infrastructure as a file host for third parties. Accounts and servers can be banned for this usage.

No API or organization

You can't upload images from a FiveM script to Discord programmatically. You also can't organize by folders, search assets, or manage access permissions.

FAQ

Common questions

Why do Discord image links break in FiveM?
Discord added expiration tokens to its CDN links in 2023. This means image links uploaded to Discord now have an expiry date. Additionally, if the original message where the image was uploaded is deleted — manually or by moderation — the image is permanently unavailable.
Is it allowed to use Discord as a CDN for my FiveM scripts?
No. Discord's Terms of Service prohibit using their infrastructure as a hosting service or CDN for third parties. While it's a common practice, it's technically prohibited and Discord can remove content or ban accounts that do it at scale.
How do I migrate my images from Discord to fivehub.pro?
Download the images from Discord while the links still work and upload them to fivehub.pro. Create an equivalent folder (e.g. 'inventory-images'), upload the files and replace the Discord URLs with the new permanent fivehub.pro URLs in your configuration.
Is there a request limit or bandwidth limit on fivehub.pro?
There is no separate request limit or bandwidth limit. The only limit is storage according to your plan (20 GB on Free, up to 500 GB on Pro). If you exceed storage, the excess is billed per GB — we never cut your access.
