The cookie is a session cookie that you can extract from your browser after you logged in on the aoc website, there you can open the console and find the session cookie when accessing the leader board for example.
The Leaderboard URL will look something like this https://adventofcode.com/2023/leaderboard/private/view/1234567. Just copy it and append .json to it. (https://adventofcode.com/2023/leaderboard/private/view/1234567.json)
The rest should be self explanatory.
If you want to use a thread for the messages, append ?thread_id=<number> to the discord webhook URL.
