Any idea where this error occurs? I’m very bad at debugging invalid body forms

[marsh beacon]

every property is undefined

you never set any name, description, etc

[carmine sedge]

To what

That’s my question

[marsh beacon]

a channel

[carmine sedge]

2 sec I’ll post my channel creation code

function createChannel(name, type, parent) {
        interaction.guild.channels.create(name, {
            type: type,
            parent: parent,
            permissionOverwrites: [
                {
                    id: interaction.guild.roles.everyone.id,
                    deny: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel]
                },
                {
                    id: interaction.user.id,
                    allow: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel, PermissionsBitField.Flags.AttachFiles,PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages, PermissionsBitField.Flags.AddReactions, PermissionsBitField.Flags.AttachFiles, PermissionsBitField.Flags.EmbedLinks, PermissionsBitField.Flags.ReadMessageHistory, PermissionsBitField.Flags.UseExternalEmojis, PermissionsBitField.Flags.Connect, PermissionsBitField.Flags.Speak, PermissionsBitField.Flags.Stream]

                    
                }

            ]
        })
    }

createChannel(`${button}-${interaction.user.username}`, ChannelType.GuildText, '1112842609161932946')```

[marsh beacon]

wherever you call your method you're not passing in any of the params

[carmine sedge]

All variables are defined, this is just a snippet of all channel related creations

[marsh beacon]

none of the variables are defined, not even your overwrites

[rain cradle]

the name goes inside the object

[marsh beacon]

oh yep thats it indeed

[thin burrow]

GuildChannelManager#create()
Creates a new channel in the guild.

[marsh beacon]

always confuse .edit and .create

[rain cradle]

yup it happens

[rain cradle]

the name option goes inside the object

[carmine sedge]

Oh inside the create?

[rain cradle]

yes

[rain cradle]

please look at this for future reference

[marsh beacon]

.create({name: "", ...})

[carmine sedge]

As such correct

[marsh beacon]

yep

[carmine sedge]

Yeah I was reading the doc, copilot might of taken it a bit weird dD

Time to test

It worked !!!!

Tyvm

I’m making a fully customizable ticket system without webpanel. It’s rough lmao but I’m about 75% of the way done

[marsh beacon]

formbodies arent really difficult to debug. If you see undefined on every property that should already alert you. the url can also be used to see what you are doing, if you POST a request to /channels, it has something to do with creating a channel

[carmine sedge]

Just need to set up the database portion and then get the messages to properly submit per button
