Im trying to do

channel.permissionOverwrites.edit(roleId, { ViewChannel: false });

but seems like permissionOverwrites does not exist (undefined)?

14.15.2 i cant access permissionOverwrites on any channel type

Svitkona•6mo ago

can you show how you defined channel

Amgelo•6mo ago

if the error is "cannot read properties of undefined (reading permissionOverwrites)", then channel is undefined, not permissionOverwrites

Nah says edit is undefined So permission override is undefined I tried all channel types idk whats the problem

and also what Svitkona mentioned, how are you defining channel

Luxbug•6mo ago

so its in a loop

const guild = await client.guilds.fetch("945412046072209408");

  for (const channel of guild.channels.cache.values()) {
    if (!channel.isTextBased()) continue;

    if (!channel.manageable) continue;

    channel.permissionOverwrites.edit("", { ViewChannel: false });
  }

const guild = await client.guilds.fetch("945412046072209408");

  for (const channel of guild.channels.cache.values()) {
    if (!channel.isTextBased()) continue;

    if (!channel.manageable) continue;

    channel.permissionOverwrites.edit("", { ViewChannel: false });
  }

well as the error says, private threads don't have a permission overwrites

d.js docs•6mo ago

:method: BaseChannel#isThread @14.15.2 Indicates whether this channel is a ThreadChannel.

TÆMBØØ•6mo ago

Add this typeguard along with your other one to exclude threads
