code:

# 
const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');

const client = new Client({
    intents: [
        GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMembers,
    ],
});

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const bot = new Discord.Client();
const token = '';
const PREFIX = '';

bot.on('ready', () => {
    console.log('i am online')


})
bot.login(token)
#

(of course without the token)

# 
      throw new DiscordjsTypeError(ErrorCodes.ClientMissingIntents);
      ^

Error [DisallowedIntents]: Privileged intent provided is not enabled or whitelisted.

If you are using the GuildMembers, GuildPresences, or MessageContent intents, you need to enable them in the developer portal:
