Reply to a message as bot
This is less a question of help and more of curiosity,
In Discord JS I know you can reply to the interaction using "
interaction.reply" instead of "interaction.channel.send"
I got curious and have decided to ask, can you (using a message id gained from the slash command) reply to a specific message in the same channel?
As an example,
You have a command that just repeats a message given in a slash command (/say "message")
Could you then create the same command, but with an extra option to input a message id which the bot would then use to reply to said message,
(/say "message" "messageid") using something like "messageid.reply"?
I tried to tinker around with it, but I don't know all the constraints of Discord JS and couldn't find a solution and google wasn't much help either.
Sorry if this is a dumb question.5 replies
