Send a message with a button.
When a user clicks the button, show them a modal where they can actually enter their answer.
When they submit the modal, you can reply using ephemeral: true to make it a message where only the user who submitted the response will see it.

Interactions can sound complicated, but they open the door to a lot more

#

The guide has examples for all of these, but feel free to ask questions for combining them

Or just use a slashcommand and reply with ephemeral: true. That’s easier for the users and also for you… since the reply will only be visible to the one that did the command so will be their answer they submitted

#

That just depends on if only one person should run the slash command to ask the question, and if once the question's asked, anyone should be able to respond

#

No, did you see the content of the slashcommand I just used in here?

#

You only see it if the reply is non-ephemeral

#

You need to .reply({content: …, ephemeral: true})

#

Every interaction needs to be responded to (else you get an error in discord app)
