Assistance getting role by ID

Im trying to get a role via ID, however, whenever i pass that roleID to permissions override in channel.create, it throws a error saying its neither a role nor a User, can i not give channel permissions this way? Code snippet:

  guild.channels
  .create({
    name: ticketID,
    type: ChannelType.GuildText,
    topic: `Type: ${Type} | ID: ${ticketID} | Urgent: ${Urgent} | Created: ${currentDate} | Status: Open | Started by: ${interaction.user.username}`,
    parent: category,
    permissionOverwrites: [
    {
      id: interaction.user.id, // <- works fine
      allow: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel, PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages, PermissionsBitField.Flags.ReadMessageHistory],
    },
    {
      id: interaction.guild.roles.cache.get("1122921112532156488"),
      allow: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel, PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages, PermissionsBitField.Flags.ReadMessageHistory],
    }

  guild.channels
  .create({
    name: ticketID,
    type: ChannelType.GuildText,
    topic: `Type: ${Type} | ID: ${ticketID} | Urgent: ${Urgent} | Created: ${currentDate} | Status: Open | Started by: ${interaction.user.username}`,
    parent: category,
    permissionOverwrites: [
    {
      id: interaction.user.id, // <- works fine
      allow: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel, PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages, PermissionsBitField.Flags.ReadMessageHistory],
    },
    {
      id: interaction.guild.roles.cache.get("1122921112532156488"),
      allow: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel, PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages, PermissionsBitField.Flags.ReadMessageHistory],
    }

Calling a DM function from outside Discord.js

Heya, I was wondering if anyone has insight to how i can call for a DM event via a outside function, My bot is running in-junction with a Fastify server, that runs authentication for a database, and when handing out access to this, I want the bot to DM the user their randomly generated key. I would assume there's a way to go about doing this, obviously, but i don't know how i would go about doing this, do i register a event in the event handler or something similar? Or can I just make a function to do this?
