second .update function erroring due to interaction already "replying"

I'm sorry if this is a common issue asked, I just need an answer as to why I cannot update the initial reply's embed twice (with components)? What should I be doing instead? Both a user select menu and a button are below the initial reply. My goal is to get the input from both of the components on the embed.

(async () => {
            let selectedMember = null;
            collector.on('collect', i => {
                if (i.user.id === interaction.user.id) {
                    if (i.componentType === ComponentType.UserSelect) {
                        selectedMember = i.users.first();
                        i.update({
                            embeds: [
                                createEmbed(interaction, selectedMember.username)
                            ],
                            ephemeral: true,
                            components: [userSelectRow, addReasonRow],
                        })
                    } else if (i.componentType === ComponentType.Button) {
                        const modal = new ModalBuilder()
                                    .setCustomId("report-form")
                                    .setTitle("Report Form")

                        const reportReasonInput = new TextInputBuilder()
                            .setCustomId("report-reason")
                            .setLabel(`What did this member do?`)
                            .setStyle(TextInputStyle.Paragraph)
                            .setRequired(true)
                            .setPlaceholder(`This member broke a rule`)
    
                        const reportFormRow = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(reportReasonInput);
                        modal.addComponents(reportFormRow);
                        i.showModal(modal);

                        interaction.awaitModalSubmit({ time: 60_000 })
                        .then(interaction => i.update({

Thank you, I've got it working but it doesn't seem like the proper way to do it, am I doing alright?

   modal.addComponents(reportFormRow);
                        await i.showModal(modal)
                        i.awaitModalSubmit({ time: 60_000 })
                        .then(i =>

                                embeds: [

                            .catch(err => console.log("No modal submit interaction was collected", err))

is there a better way to get a specific value in the collection like by name

d.js docs•9mo ago

:method: ModalSubmitFields#getTextInputValue() Gets the value of a text input component given a custom id
