discord.js - Imagine an app•4w ago
waraside

Trying to figure out why my user app doesn't work in direct messages.

Is there something that need to be enabled during command registration for user apps to work in dms? Is there something that needs to be enabled in the developer portal. Does it have to be a verified bot?

ok I think I solved it... I think I need wait for global commands to update to know for sure https://discord.js.org/docs/packages/builders/main/ChatInputCommandBuilder:Class#setContexts 
import { SlashCommandBuilder, InteractionContextType } from 'discord.js';

        new SlashCommandBuilder()
            .setContexts([
                InteractionContextType.BotDM,
                InteractionContextType.Guild,
                InteractionContextType.PrivateChannel
            ])
            .setName('help')
            .setDescription('Gets help infomation.')
import { SlashCommandBuilder, InteractionContextType } from 'discord.js';

        new SlashCommandBuilder()
            .setContexts([
                InteractionContextType.BotDM,
                InteractionContextType.Guild,
                InteractionContextType.PrivateChannel
            ])
            .setName('help')
            .setDescription('Gets help infomation.')
I think this is correct

did you deploy them globally or within a guild? https://discordjs.guide/creating-your-bot/command-deployment.html#global-commands
Global application commands will be available in all the guilds your application has the applications.commands scope authorized in, and in direct messages by default.
