Responding to Select Menus Options

Hey, I've made a Select Menu with 2 options, and I understand how to make the bot receive interaction as far the Select Menu goes, but I am having trouble understanding how to filter out each of the option and send an embed depending on that This is the code for the Select Menu:

    let SelectMenu = new Discord.ActionRowBuilder().setComponents(
      new Discord.SelectMenuBuilder()
        .setCustomId("categories")
        .setPlaceholder("Select a Help Category!")
        .setOptions([
          { label: "General", value: "General" },
          { label: "Fun", value: "Fun" },
        ])
    );

    let SelectMenu = new Discord.ActionRowBuilder().setComponents(
      new Discord.SelectMenuBuilder()
        .setCustomId("categories")
        .setPlaceholder("Select a Help Category!")
        .setOptions([
          { label: "General", value: "General" },
          { label: "Fun", value: "Fun" },
        ])
    );

• What's your exact discord.js npm list discord.js and node node -v version? • Post the full error stack trace, not just the top part! • Show your code! • Explain what exactly your issue is. • Not a discord.js issue? Check out #useful-servers.

I've been reading that exact page for a while, but I still can't seem to understand, it shows how to respond to a select menu, but not each option unless I a missing that part?

Yes, but isn't that the Custom ID of the select menu?

Dagan•2y ago

Oh yeah sorry ill look firther for you

Danial•2y ago

No worries, that's where I am having trouble, I tried using Custom ID for options, and that didn't work so I don't think that's how you do it

Dagan•2y ago

Ill send the code to get an array with everything thats selected I found it oh i saw wrong thing but could tou try interaction.values out I think that should work interaction.values

Danial•2y ago

Okay, I'll try that I tried something, that obviously didn't work, can you tell me how I'd filter out options using that?

Dagan•2y ago

What would you like to filter out exactly? And send what youve tried ^^^ if it wasnt clear already I thought i said it pretty clear but maybe not thanks for resaying it if i didnt already

Danial•2y ago

I think I understand but can you maybe send some code as an example so I can pick up everything properly? Yep, thank you so much
