.send takes a single object And you dont need to fetch the channel, they're cached by the Guilds intent

d.js docs•11mo ago

:interface: MessageCreateOptions The options for sending a message.

treble/luna•11mo ago

and attachment builder takes an object as second param

Trying it like this now

const attachment = new AttachmentBuilder({ buffer: Buffer.from(backupJSON), name: `backup_${tier}.json` });


await channel.send({
      content: `Daily Backup Data for Server ${serverId} - ${tier}:`,
      files: [{
        name: `backup_${tier}.json`,
        content: [attachment],
      }],
    });

const attachment = new AttachmentBuilder({ buffer: Buffer.from(backupJSON), name: `backup_${tier}.json` });


await channel.send({
      content: `Daily Backup Data for Server ${serverId} - ${tier}:`,
      files: [{
        name: `backup_${tier}.json`,
        content: [attachment],
      }],
    });

And it's finally giving some TypeError of undefined Symbol.asyncIterator What is wrong?

d.js docs•11mo ago

:class: AttachmentBuilder Represents an attachment builder

please read the docs, dont just guess

I thought your explanation was not enough and was confused, but after reading it seriously and trying a few times it worked Thanks a lot :Dance_TJN:
