getChannel does not exist for interaction.options

Howdy, I'm trying to get a text channel from a command channel option, but I'm getting the error that 'getChannel' property doesn't exist even though it appears as a method in the docs and I've seen it in other people's code. I'm using the typescript complete example bot as a base. Npm ls returns discord.js 14.14.1

ts:32:51 - error TS2339: Property 'getChannel' does not exist on type 'Omit<CommandInteractionOptionResolver<CacheType>, "getMessage" | "getFocused" | "getMentionable" | "getRole" | "getAttachment" | ... 6 more ... | "getSubcommand">'.

 const channelOption = interaction.options.getChannel('channel', true);

 const channelOption = interaction.options.getChannel('channel', true);
