Adding new tag to forum channel

The tag is added, with the name correctly set, but the emoji is missing. Here's my code:

client.on("messageCreate", async (message) => {
  if (message.content.startsWith("!addTag")) {
    const channelIdToCopy = message.content.split(" ")[1];
    const tagName = "Help Needed";
    const tagEmoji = "❗";

    try {
      const forumChannel = await client.channels.fetch(channelIdToCopy);

      if (!forumChannel || forumChannel.type !== ChannelType.GuildForum) {
        message.channel.send("Invalid or non-forum channel ID provided.");
        return;
      }

      const updatedTags = [
        ...forumChannel.availableTags,
        { name: tagName, emoji: tagEmoji },
      ];

      await forumChannel.edit({ availableTags: updatedTags });
    } catch (error) {
      console.error("Error adding tag with emoji:", error);
      message.channel.send(
        "An error occurred while adding the tag with emoji."
      );
    }
  }
});

client.on("messageCreate", async (message) => {
  if (message.content.startsWith("!addTag")) {
    const channelIdToCopy = message.content.split(" ")[1];
    const tagName = "Help Needed";
    const tagEmoji = "❗";

    try {
      const forumChannel = await client.channels.fetch(channelIdToCopy);

      if (!forumChannel || forumChannel.type !== ChannelType.GuildForum) {
        message.channel.send("Invalid or non-forum channel ID provided.");
        return;
      }

      const updatedTags = [
        ...forumChannel.availableTags,
        { name: tagName, emoji: tagEmoji },
      ];

      await forumChannel.edit({ availableTags: updatedTags });
    } catch (error) {
      console.error("Error adding tag with emoji:", error);
      message.channel.send(
        "An error occurred while adding the tag with emoji."
      );
    }
  }
});

I don't get any error in the console, by the way! Trying to directly put the emoji with the brackets in the 'emoji:' field didn't work.

it seems the emoji property expects a GuildForumTagEmoji object and doesn't resolve emoji identifiers for you like some other emoji fields

GuildForumTagData

Then what should I put in the code instead please? I want to use this exact emoji: ❗

duck•12mo ago

since this is a unicode emoji, a { name } object

d.js docs•12mo ago

GuildForumTagEmoji

P'titeLouiseOP•12mo ago

I'm confused, would that work?

const updatedTags = [
  ...forumChannel.availableTags,
  { name: tagName, emoji: { name: exclamation }},
];

const updatedTags = [
  ...forumChannel.availableTags,
  { name: tagName, emoji: { name: exclamation }},
];

duck•12mo ago

if exclamation is ❗ , sure

P'titeLouiseOP•12mo ago

Let me try It is on Discord I think

duck•12mo ago

I meant literally if the variable named exclamation has a value of ❗ that is the name of the emoji, yes

P'titeLouiseOP•12mo ago

Yeah, this worked:

const updatedTags = [
  ...forumChannel.availableTags,
  { name: tagName, emoji: { name: "❗" } },
];

const updatedTags = [
  ...forumChannel.availableTags,
  { name: tagName, emoji: { name: "❗" } },
];

Thank you for your help @duck I'll close the post now
