#user banner fetch
heady quail
ClientUser is your bot and bots cannot have a banner
heady quail
right, user payloads don't include a banner, so you have to fetch the user once for that data to be available
the force option skips the cache check and ALWAYS fetches the user from the API
(usually we check the cache before hitting the API)

user banner fetch
quick shoal
Do you mean like: client.users.fetch('707388753576198265')
heady quail
where do you get the User instance from?
quick shoal
do you mean 707388753576198265?
heady quail
do you want the banner of that specific user, or the command author or something?
quick shoal
do you want the banner of that specific user, or the command author or something...
I want the banner of a specific user using ID
heady quail
Do you mean like: `client.users.fetch('707388753576198265')`
then yes, that should do it
the resolving user should have #bannerURL then
provided that user has set a banner, ofc
quick shoal
if they dont will it just show the color?
heady quail
no, that's available via a different property
quick shoal
which property is that?
heady quail
should be #accentColor
covert fernBOT
<:_:874569322742308864> User#accentColor
The base 10 accent color of the user's banner (more...)

quick shoal
im trying to display accent color as embed color and user banner as image
quick shoal
but you have a color set, don't you?
no
heady quail
oh, is that the one they derived from the avatar?
guess that's not available via the API
quick shoal
guess that's not available via the API <:shibaThinking:762178529709391914>
my banner color is blue
heady quail
did you set that manually?
quick shoal
did you set that manually?
yes
heady quail
then the question is... why do i not get it
quick shoal
nvm, its the default
heady quail
that information is not something discord gives you, it seems

I did:
user2=interaction.options.getUser('user')||interaction.user
user3=await client.users.fetch(user2.id)
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setColor(user3.accentColor||'#5865F2')
.setImage(user3.bannerURL())
await interaction.reply({embeds:[embed]});
but it keeps saying i must fetch it
heady quail
what you say and what you do kinda don't align...
i asked where you get the user from, so you get it from the interaction, why exactly do you say you get it via an ID then...
just user2#fetch, no need to go via client
- though i cannot see how that wouldn't work
what do you mean by "it keeps saying"?
quick shoal
hmm
oh
thats what you meant
'it keeps saying' as in the error
user2=interaction.options.getUser('user')||interaction.user
user3=user2.fetch()
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setImage(user3.bannerURL())
await ineraction.reply(embeds:[embed])
"TypeError: user3.bannerURL is not a function"
heady quail
well... the code you JUST showed is different
