[✅]lastMessage is null when lastMessageId is not ? [DM channel]

Hello ! As explained in this title, I'm using dmChannel in a command, just that atm :

const dmChannel = await user.createDM();

console.log(await dmChannel.lastMessageId);
console.log(await dmChannel.lastMessage);
//await dmChannel.send(args.join(" "));
await message.react('✅');

const dmChannel = await user.createDM();

console.log(await dmChannel.lastMessageId);
console.log(await dmChannel.lastMessage);
//await dmChannel.send(args.join(" "));
await message.react('✅');

Here is the output

1056613381500584057
null

1056613381500584057
null

I only have GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages as DM related intent atm. Am I missing something ? node version : 16.15.0

additional information : The DM channel between me and the bot contains only two message from him

Parogo_72•2y ago

that can be expected just because the id is present doesnt mean that the bot will fetch it/have the message in cache

AkihiroOP•2y ago

So I have to get around this by fetching the message with the ID I guess ? <:AlbedoMath_Wilock:799116606168629248>

when fetching a channel from discord, it only sends the id discord.js doesnt fetch the message associated
