You need to know javascript if you wanna make a web server to use web request with. Also, you can't actually retrive information with web request, but you can still do some cool stuff. Anyways, it's just super complicated that you need actual coding experience for.

Yes, but there's also Game Action: Send Discord Webhook, which is significantly easier to use. I'm sure someone has (or will) make a tutorial on how to use them, but as of now unless you know that you need webrequests then you likely don't really need to know how to use them.

You would need to use node.js and some express if you wanted to make a webserver that does anything remotely useful

I should probably mention that it's not just javascript, it's node.js.
Before you go off copying all the code, there is more to a web server than just "type code, boom". You have to host it, which is a big pain, and unless you want your IP leaked you have to find a third party. Then you have to do stuff with the information, like store it in a database or whatever, which is also a pain. The whole thing is just a pain that isn't worth it.

Also copy pasting code isnt a good way to learn as it will hinder you in the long run

Also, you can use web requests with other websites or APIs other than ones you make yourself. They're mostly used for Discord, though.
