Discord.net help - Trying to access a users roles

Does anybody know a method I can use to access a users discord roles whilst I am logging into my application so I can either allow them into the app or disallow them? If you have any guides on how I could do this or some examples that would give some ideas on how I can do this as currently my method is not working. Here is how it looks.

c#
    private async Task<bool> IsUserInServerWithRole(string discordUserId)
    {
        ulong requiredGuildId = 123456790; 
        ulong requiredRoleId = 123456790; 

        // Attempt to get the guild
        var guild = _botService.Client.GetGuild(requiredGuildId);
        if (guild == null)
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("Guild not found.");
            return false;
        }

        var user = guild.GetUser(ulong.Parse(discordUserId));
        if (user != null)
        {
            _logger.LogInformation($"User {user.Username} has {user.Roles.Count} roles.");
            foreach (var role in user.Roles)
            {
                _logger.LogInformation($"Role: {role.Name}, ID: {role.Id}");
                if (role.Id == requiredRoleId)
                {
                    _logger.LogInformation($"Match found for required role ID: {role.Id}");
                }
            }
        }
        else
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("User not found in guild.");
        }

        bool hasRole = user.Roles.Any(role => role.Id == requiredRoleId);
        return hasRole;
    }

c#
    private async Task<bool> IsUserInServerWithRole(string discordUserId)
    {
        ulong requiredGuildId = 123456790; 
        ulong requiredRoleId = 123456790; 

        // Attempt to get the guild
        var guild = _botService.Client.GetGuild(requiredGuildId);
        if (guild == null)
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("Guild not found.");
            return false;
        }

        var user = guild.GetUser(ulong.Parse(discordUserId));
        if (user != null)
        {
            _logger.LogInformation($"User {user.Username} has {user.Roles.Count} roles.");
            foreach (var role in user.Roles)
            {
                _logger.LogInformation($"Role: {role.Name}, ID: {role.Id}");
                if (role.Id == requiredRoleId)
                {
                    _logger.LogInformation($"Match found for required role ID: {role.Id}");
                }
            }
        }
        else
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("User not found in guild.");
        }

        bool hasRole = user.Roles.Any(role => role.Id == requiredRoleId);
        return hasRole;
    }

Just looking for more ideas about this approach. My brain is starting to run out of them. Tia

what exactly doesn't work? The code you show is a valid option for getting user roles

RhysOP•9mo ago

Let me run it and grab the error. I'll just be a second

RhysOP•9mo ago

 Empty = "Enumeration yielded no results"

 Empty = "Enumeration yielded no results"

This appears when I hit the break point here however it shows there is a count of 10 roles. This makes it return as false Its like it can't see the roles?

RhysOP•9mo ago

Thats the count. Its just not showing me what 10 roles there are.

Anu6is•9mo ago

😕 so what does your logging output? seeing as you loop through the roles collection before that

RhysOP•9mo ago

RhysOP•9mo ago

Doesn't seem to get the role and Id

Anu6is•9mo ago

uh...which part of those logs is related to this section of code?

RhysOP•9mo ago

The 10 roles at the top it seems

Anu6is•9mo ago

I don't see log in ur code snippet oh sorry, i see so if you debug (use the debugger) does it just skip the foreach

RhysOP•9mo ago

Yeah its skipping this whole section here

Anu6is•9mo ago

😕

RhysOP•9mo ago

Yeah I am totally lost. I wonder if you can't do Oauth but I would be suprised if thats the case

Anu6is•9mo ago

nothing in this snippet is related to OAuth though... you have a DiscordSocketClient assuming that's what _botService.Client returns... and that fact that you successfully get a guild and a user should mean the client is already logged in and ready

RhysOP•9mo ago

Yeah its logged in and ready but if you don't have a specified role I want it to (at some point) send you to another page so it just sends the user to that But currently its not even capable of extracting the data from whatever the role info is stored in

RhysOP•9mo ago

Got the socket setup here

Anu6is•9mo ago

what async work does this method actually do?

RhysOP•9mo ago

Literally this

Anu6is•9mo ago

no, i mean the IsUserInServerWithRole why is it returning a Task<bool> is there other code that you left out? cause these no awaits in your snippit

RhysOP•9mo ago

Just this

Anu6is•9mo ago

🤔 inside of the method, now how u call the method

    private async Task<bool> IsUserInServerWithRole(string discordUserId)
    {
        ulong requiredGuildId = 123456790; 
        ulong requiredRoleId = 123456790; 

        // Attempt to get the guild
        var guild = _botService.Client.GetGuild(requiredGuildId);
        if (guild == null)
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("Guild not found.");
            return false;
        }

        var user = guild.GetUser(ulong.Parse(discordUserId));
        if (user != null)
        {
            _logger.LogInformation($"User {user.Username} has {user.Roles.Count} roles.");
            foreach (var role in user.Roles)
            {
                _logger.LogInformation($"Role: {role.Name}, ID: {role.Id}");
                if (role.Id == requiredRoleId)
                {
                    _logger.LogInformation($"Match found for required role ID: {role.Id}");
                }
            }
        }
        else
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("User not found in guild.");
        }

        bool hasRole = user.Roles.Any(role => role.Id == requiredRoleId);
        return hasRole;
    }

    private async Task<bool> IsUserInServerWithRole(string discordUserId)
    {
        ulong requiredGuildId = 123456790; 
        ulong requiredRoleId = 123456790; 

        // Attempt to get the guild
        var guild = _botService.Client.GetGuild(requiredGuildId);
        if (guild == null)
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("Guild not found.");
            return false;
        }

        var user = guild.GetUser(ulong.Parse(discordUserId));
        if (user != null)
        {
            _logger.LogInformation($"User {user.Username} has {user.Roles.Count} roles.");
            foreach (var role in user.Roles)
            {
                _logger.LogInformation($"Role: {role.Name}, ID: {role.Id}");
                if (role.Id == requiredRoleId)
                {
                    _logger.LogInformation($"Match found for required role ID: {role.Id}");
                }
            }
        }
        else
        {
            _logger.LogWarning("User not found in guild.");
        }

        bool hasRole = user.Roles.Any(role => role.Id == requiredRoleId);
        return hasRole;
    }

^ in this

RhysOP•9mo ago

its called in my HTTP Post So when I make a post to do the exchange its called within that

Anu6is•9mo ago

I don't think u get what i'm asking

RhysOP•9mo ago

I think I might be confused

Anu6is•9mo ago

this method private async Task<bool> IsUserInServerWithRole has async Task<bool> yet it does not do any async work why is it not just private bool IsUserInServerWithRole

RhysOP•9mo ago

Let me try it

Severity    Code    Description    Project    File    Line    Suppression State
Error    CS1061    'bool' does not contain a definition for 'GetAwaiter' and no accessible extension method 'GetAwaiter' accepting a first argument of type 'bool' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)            72    Active

Severity    Code    Description    Project    File    Line    Suppression State

Got an error about "Get Awaiter"?

Anu6is•9mo ago

where?

RhysOP•9mo ago

Anu6is•9mo ago

remove await

RhysOP•9mo ago

Empty = "Enumeration yielded no results"

Empty = "Enumeration yielded no results"

still this issue :cry_cat: inside of my Roles Also skips the actual check for the role :/

Anu6is•9mo ago

which check?

RhysOP•9mo ago

This one^

Anu6is•9mo ago

does it skip the foreach itself or just the if?

RhysOP•9mo ago

Just the if. It goes to the user.Roles then the in then back out

Anu6is•9mo ago

also are you actually using the debugger or just relying on the logging?

RhysOP•9mo ago

I am using the debugger It shoes the count of roles so in this case = 21. But then it wont match the id with the ids so it knows ids are there just not able to access

Anu6is•9mo ago

that doesn't make sense though... if you have a collection with items, it should simply iterate through that collection

RhysOP•9mo ago

Thats what i thought but when I try to access the collection I get Empty = "Enumeration yielded no results"

Rettoph•9mo ago

maybe unnecessary, im unsure what intents are privileged and what arent, but have you verified whatever youre doing doesnt require opting in within the Discord developer dashboard? I dont think it makes sense since you are allegedly getting the 10 roles and can see them in the debugger, but might be worth playing around with? 🤷‍♂️

RhysOP•9mo ago

I have all of them checked 😦

RhysOP•9mo ago

Actually, not this one. Unsure fully what it does

Anu6is•9mo ago

if (user != null)
{
    var roles = user.Roles.ToArray();
    ....
    ....
}

if (user != null)
{
    var roles = user.Roles.ToArray();
    ....
    ....
}

if you add that before you logger line and put a break point on the logger. Does the array have anything?

RhysOP•9mo ago

Empty = "Enumeration yielded no results" Still has the count thoug

Anu6is•9mo ago

screenshot

RhysOP•9mo ago

its not letting me, just comes off when I go to screenshot

RhysOP•9mo ago

In visualiser I get this

Anu6is•9mo ago

yeah, idk... this is weird. As far as I can see the code is correct

RhysOP•9mo ago

I've been stuck on and off for about 2 months I am about to give up and go to js at this point :CryingCool:

RhysOP•9mo ago

There you go thats whats popping up

Anu6is•9mo ago

not the user.Roles.... the array var roles = user.Roles.ToArray(); what does roles show

RhysOP•9mo ago

Anu6is•9mo ago

🚶‍♂️ gg

RhysOP•9mo ago

:cowboy_cool_cry_mild_panic: Yep, its really not looking good

Rettoph•9mo ago

do you have the code sitting anywhere public? I can try taking a quick stab at it locally

RhysOP•9mo ago

I don't no currently its filled with personal info and stuff of that matter 😦 I would be happy to go into a call and go through what I have so you can see where I am and what its doing?

Rettoph•9mo ago

No promises, but sure.
