fetch embeds from MessageReactionAdd?

With my bot, I have it send an image every 3 minutes from an API. What I would like to do is then send the image to a user that reacts to the embed with a ✅. As it stands, reaction.message.embeds[0] always shows up as empty, despite the message being reacted to clearly having embeds.

client.on('messageReactionAdd', async (reaction, user) => {
    if (reaction.emoji.name == '❌' && !user.bot) {
        user.id == reaction.message.interaction.user.id ? reaction.message.delete() : user.send('You can only delete your own requests!')
    }
    // if the interaction is reacted to with a checkmark, send a message to the user
    if (reaction.emoji.name == '✅' && !user.bot) {
        console.log(reaction.message.embeds[0])
        user.send(`Lorem Ipsum and all that jazz`)
    }
})

The user.send is just so I know the bot is actually trying to do something.

Try

const message = await reaction.message.fetch();
console.log(message.embeds[0])

Yep, that did the trick! I keep forgetting Node is asynchronous. Thanks a tonne!

well

that's not quite the issue here

I wasn't waiting for the message to be cached so that it could properly utilize it?

[wicked sapphire]

you aren't "waiting" for anything

you are fetching the message

since i assume that you have reaction and message partials enabled

in which case, when discord sends the event, you only have the message id, as that's only thing they send

That makes sense

[wicked sapphire]

that's why you have to specifically fetch the message the first time (as it's partial message)

Yeah, that makes a lot more sense than my sleep deprived explanation. Thanks for the elaboration XD
