Afaik ephemerals are only accessible only when an interaction happens

You can't just show it out of nowhere

[fathom escarp]

Yeah i figure

figured

well, alright. Thanks

[sterile flare]

good luck

[fathom escarp]

will I be able to edit a previous ephemeral message?

[sterile flare]

dunno about that one mate sorry.
Never tried it.
Someone else might have to help you on that.

Think so, with .editReply()

[fathom escarp]

Can I do that even after I have like sent other ephemeral messages or no

[mellow spear]

editReply edits the original reply whether it be ephemeral or not

If you want to edit a followup js const response = await interaction.followUp({ ephemeral: true, ... }); response.edit(...);

[placid mason]

ephemeral messages must be edited through the interaction webhook
<Interaction>.editReply() is the correct method
the message option can be specified if attempting to edit a follow up

followUp resolves in the Message sent, and <Message>.edit() will error when attempting to edit an ephemeral message

[mellow spear]

Ah yeah, forgot it was a Message lol

I have a button, and like one person clicks the button. and an ephemeral message comes up. and then one other person clicks the button and the same thing happens to him. But is it possible for when the second person presses the button, it edits the first persons ephemeral message?
