polar ore bots cannot trigger interactions

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:41 PM

#

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:41 PM

#

like i wanna automate trigger interaction

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:41 PM

#

you can’t

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:41 PM

#

#

bots cannot trigger interactions

#

self bots are against tos

#

and this is the d.js server, not python

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:42 PM

#

i understand

#

but by keeping our acccounts on risk?

#

can we do it?

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:42 PM

#

self bots are against tos

#

Do not use self-bots or user-bots. Each account must be associated with a human, not a bot. (See our Platform Manipulation Policy Explainer for more.)

#

but if we still use it?

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:43 PM

#

i’m not really going to answer that

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:43 PM

#

as i saw people doing it

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:43 PM

#

that doesn’t make it okay

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:43 PM

#

it was really needed else i wouldn't have gone against tos

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:43 PM

#

what is the goal here?

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:44 PM

#

its like i have some button in a server

#

on clicking it i get a specific message on dm

#

i want the new message like every 30 minutes

#

as its like a price change thing

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:45 PM

#

that seems really spammy i don’t suggest this idea at all

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:45 PM

#

yeah i understand

#

but can u tell how discord buttons works on user end?

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:47 PM

#

you click a button, sends a trigger for the interactionCreate event with info on who pressed it, custom id, user, etc

#

i’m not sure how that’s relevant

#

bots again still cannot trigger interactions

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:47 PM

#

no this

#

the part on clicking

#

like how they send a trigger to bot

#

or how they receive that i clicked

#

the button

#

Interactions are not made to automate your process. Use a webhook and a cronjob or similar.

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:49 PM

#

i don’t quite understand why you need to know that

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:50 PM

#

polar ore i don’t quite understand why you need to know that

So that I can make a click request by my own

pallid shoal Dec 2, 2024, 10:50 PM

#

You can’t as pointed out multiple times.

polar ore Dec 2, 2024, 10:50 PM

#

i said this like 4 times

dusty fjord Dec 2, 2024, 10:50 PM

#
