can you share your entire code? also there's no "data" property in interactions, you're looking for commandName

CommandInteraction#commandName
The invoked application command's name

for (const file of eventFiles) {
    const event = require(path.join(eventsDir, file));
    if (event.once) {
        console.log(event.name)
        bot.once(event.name, (...args) => event.execute(...args));
    } else {
        console.log(event.name)
        bot.on(event.name, (...args) => event.execute(...args));
    }
}

bot.commands = new Map();

const slashCommandFiles = fs.readdirSync(slashCommandsDir).filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));
for (const file of slashCommandFiles) {
    const command = require(path.join(slashCommandsDir, file));
    bot.commands.set(command.name, command);
}

bot.on('interactionCreate', async (interaction) => {
    console.log(interaction);
    if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;

    const command = bot.commands.get(interaction.data.name);

    if (!command) return;
    
    try {
        await command.execute(interaction);
    } catch (error) {
        console.log(error);
        await interaction.reply({
            content: 'There was an error while executing this command!', 
            ephemeral: true
        });
    }
});

The paths are stated correctly

const eventsDir = path.resolve(__dirname, 'events');
const slashCommandsDir = path.resolve(__dirname, 'commands/testing');

My on ready file works

And what did you do that you think should cause an interaction?

[unreal sentinel]

A slash command

[harsh nacelle]

Of that bot? And the bot is (and stays) online while doing so?

[unreal sentinel]

?

I’m exporting my bot in my index file and getting it inside a another file but anything I do with the bot in it it says it’s undefined

[harsh nacelle]

Yeah, you shouldn’t do that. That causes circular dependencies causing your issue. Instead pass the bot (Client) when calling that other file.

Or just use the .client property virtually any djs payload has

@still aspen how about not pinging a mod with docs in a thread you didn’t even join yourself?
