Adding permissions to bot that is already used in many servers
Hello everyone, hope you doing great,
in short words, I want to start using webhooks with my bot but I never added that permission in my bot invitation, many servers already using my bot now, how can I add features using the webhook that will require creating / editing / deleting webhooks ?

- What's your exact discord.js
npm list discord.js and node node -v version?
- Not a discord.js issue? Check out #other-js-ts.

- Issue solved? Press the button!this seems to be a question more about design than discord.js, but you'll pretty much always need to handle the possibility that your bot won't have permissions it needs for a public bot
so beyond announcing this feature from a support server, just responding that your bot is missing required permissions when users attempt to use this new feature is perfectly fine
Sorry didn't know where to ask but here,
So they will have to manually add it to my bot ?
yes, your bot can't elevate its own permissions after all
that'd be a major issue if users could just give themselves elevated permissions
Appreciate your answer, thank you
