Why are my embeds not sent but Files are?

I'm using this payload in a raw rest.post() request and the files are being sent, but not the embeds. Why? I have based the code on the original code from djs.

payload = {
  body: {
    payload_json: {
      embeds: [
        {
          // ...
        },
      ],
    },
  },
  files: files, // That goes through
} as RESTPostAPIChannelMessageFormDataBody;

...

await ctx.client.rest.post(
    Routes.channelMessages(postId),
    payload
 )

payload = {
  body: {
    payload_json: {
      embeds: [
        {
          // ...
        },
      ],
    },
  },
  files: files, // That goes through
} as RESTPostAPIChannelMessageFormDataBody;

...

await ctx.client.rest.post(
    Routes.channelMessages(postId),
    payload
 )

LukeZOP•4d ago

let sendOptions = { payload_json: {}, files: files }

let sendOptions = { payload_json: {}, files: files }

okay, lemme try it I do Wait what :Thinkeng: I give it a try nope, still doesn't work Because I don't have the channel and don#t want to fetch it I'm using raw rest Because it might not be cached -# but that's not the point here

sendOptions = {
  payload_json: JSON.stringify({
    embeds: [
      {
        author: {
          name: "...",
          url: `...`,
        },
        description: "...",
        thumbnail: !ticket.alias
          ? { url: ctx.user.avatarURL() }
          : undefined,
        color: 0x<somecolorcode>,
      },
    ],
  }),
  files: files,
} as RESTPostAPIChannelMessageFormDataBody;

I wanted to use this, but I would still need the channel tho I tried using it but the target needs to be set - I might not have it in the cache

LukeZOP•4d ago

uuuh

[x] doubt I might just use the interaction.user and resolve the body there it's not sent to the user but it might work since I just need the body noted
