Can’t create channels

[robust rain]

my bot was working perfectly but after a while it won’t create any more channels:

if (interaction.customId === 'ButtonID') {
            await interaction.deferUpdate().catch(err => { console.log(err) });
            if (openticket.has(interaction.user.id)) return interaction.followUp({ content: `<@${interaction.user.id}> You already have unclosed ticket `, ephemeral: true }).catch(err => { console.log(err) });
            catagory = "CatagoryID"
interaction.guild.channels.create({
                name: `🟢-Ticket`,
                type: ChannelType.GuildText,
                parent: catagory,
                topic: "welcome, what do you need?",
                permissionOverwrites: [
                {
                    id: interaction.guild.id,
                    deny: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel, PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages]
                },
                {
                    id: interaction.user.id,
                    allow: [PermissionsBitField.Flags.ViewChannel, PermissionsBitField.Flags.SendMessages, PermissionsBitField.Flags.ReadMessageHistory, PermissionsBitField.Flags.EmbedLinks, PermissionsBitField.Flags.AttachFiles]
                },
                ]
            }).then(async t => {
                interaction.followUp({ content: `Your ticket was created: <#${t.id}>`, ephemeral: true }).catch(err => { console.log(err) });  openticket.add(interaction.user.id);
t.send("test").catch(err => { console.log(err) });
            }).catch(async err => { 
                console.log(err);
                interaction.followUp({ content: `${err}`, ephemeral: true }).catch(err => { console.log(err) });
            });```

Additional notes, idk if it will help but my guild is kinda big it has about 12k members and they open a lot of channels by the bot

[mellow bronze]

Guilds can have 500 channels maximum

For tickets private threads are better

[robust rain]

I checked that earlier it should ping me in the console but no nothing

[robust rain]

it’s kinda old style server that’s why

[robust rain]

After they clicking the button the bot will reply with interaction.deferUpdate().catch(err => { console.log(err) }); then it’ll stop without creating the channels, btw it was working perfectly so idk what is the problem here

[nimble ruin]

Probably ratelimit. How often do new channels get created?

[robust rain]

Tbh they creating a lot of the channels but I didn’t face this problem before

it’s not like 1 minute between each channel

[nimble ruin]

Shorter or longer?

[robust rain]

longer

like right now it’s been like 20 minutes away from last channel created and it still won’t create any

[nimble ruin]

How many channels are there on that guild? In total

[robust rain]

it’s less than 500 for sure, but lemme double check

[robust rain]

and by the channels you mean all of them?

I used channels forEach to calculate them and that’s the result
Total channels in the guild: 619

[nimble ruin]

So way more than 500… though I suspect some of them to be threads but still sounds like you simply hit the limit

[robust rain]

so the threads aren’t counting in the limits?

[nimble ruin]

Threads aren’t channels on that count, yes

[robust rain]

Total channels in the guild (excluding threads): 448

I recheck the number without the threads; However even if I reached the 500 limit it’ll ping me in the console as it was before

but right now it’ll not log anything

[nimble ruin]

Listen to the rateLimited event

Does the bot work otherwise? Or is it hanging completely ?

[robust rain]

I tried

client.on('rateLimit', (info) => {
  console.log(`Rate limit hit: Timeout - ${info.timeout}ms, Limit - ${info.limit} requests, Method - ${info.method}, Path - ${info.path}, Route - ${info.route}, Global - ${info.global}`);
});```
But nothing in the console

[robust rain]

it’s listening to dropdown menu interactions

[robust rain]

also here it replies with interaction.deferUpdate().catch(err => { console.log(err) }); but it won’t create the channel idk why

do you think I need to fetch the guild or channels or sth?

[nimble ruin]

In v14 the event is on client.rest and named rateLimited

[nimble ruin]

The interaction webhook is independent from your bot‘s rest so that will always succeed even if your bot is rateLimited

[robust rain]

Rate limit hit! Timeout: undefinedms
Request Route: /guilds/:id/channels
Request Method: POST
Global: false
Limit: 2000

[robust rain]

It’ll reset the RateLimit after 15 hours

[robust rain]

and how do I skip this Rate limit?

[nimble ruin]

You don’t skip rate limits. You need to wait for them to pass

And take the time to redesign your bot to not hit it again

[robust rain]

does the verified bots has a higher rate limits?

[nimble ruin]

No
