Find a role by name then update it

How do I find a role in a guild by it's name. Then update it's info?

guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Yara').then((role) => {
  role.edit({ name: '🤖Yara', colour: '#ff5757'});
});

guild.roles.cache.find(role => role.name === 'Yara').then((role) => {
  role.edit({ name: '🤖Yara', colour: '#ff5757'});
});

Does this code work. Note that this is in the guildCreate event

<Collection>.find() doesn't return a Promise

guild.roles.me.edit({ name: '🤖Yara', color: '#ff5757', position: 4 });

guild.roles.me.edit({ name: '🤖Yara', color: '#ff5757', position: 4 });

would that work instead?

.find() returns a Role or undefined, not a Promise You can't do .then()

PAdventuresOP•3y ago

would this work if I am trying to edit the bot's role?

Syjalo•3y ago

No roles.me is not a think

guild.roles.client.edit?

Syjalo•3y ago

<Guild>.roles.botRoleFor(client.user).edit()

PAdventuresOP•3y ago

k would guild.client.user work? or does it have to be client.user?

Syjalo•3y ago

Yes, it would

I (Bot )has ManageRoles permission though this is how i assign intents / patials

const client = new Client({
    intents: [Object.keys(GatewayIntentBits)],
    partials: [Object.keys(Partials)],
});

const client = new Client({
    intents: [Object.keys(GatewayIntentBits)],
    partials: [Object.keys(Partials)],
});

d.js docs•3y ago

We highly recommend only specifying the intents you actually need. • Note, that 98303, 32767 or whatever other magic number you read that represents "all intents", gets outdated as soon as new intents are introduced. • The number will always represent the same set of intents, and will not include new ones. There is no magic "all intents" bit.

PAdventuresOP•3y ago

same error occurs every time is this because the bot can't update it's own role? ^^^

CanineData•3y ago

If that role is it's highest role then it can't edit it
