[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #2588 Overlapping profiles

So I was just browsing on discord when I realized I couldn't click out of someones profile without clicking their profile picture. I'm not sure if it's either a new feature or a bug. Please folow these steps to recreate what I experienced.

  1. First go to the right hand side when you're in a server.
  2. Click on someones name to pop up their profile.
  3. Then see if you can click out of it by clicking the chat.
  4. If not, click other peoples names. This will overlap their profiles.

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #2589 Ability to hide certain commands in DMs

Description
A field in the command object to hide that command from the list in DMs.

Why This is Needed
Some commands don't make sense in DMs, for example, moderation commands. It would be best if those commands didn't show in the list.

Alternatives Considered
Erroring when the command is used or ignoring it; those would be a worse user experience

Additional Details
Maybe, instead of hiding, showing them at the bottom of the list but disabled and with text like "T...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2037: Raise Bots Upload Limits

i have this problem also, i made an unconventional command that allows users to upload code in .java files to add to the bot, and yes, i read before i add it, but the bot is open source and i added a way to download .java files also, the bot cant upload any source thats over 8mb in size, the command also allows for storing up to 10mb in other types of files per user, zips are denied due to zip bombs, and sometimes a user uploads a file over 8mb and might want it back, so they cant get it

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2325: Include objects in interaction data for user, role, and channel options

Sorry for the silence on this for a little bit. We've been debating internally what the right path forward is to support this (as much as I love GraphQL in theory it'd be a bit hard to implement only for this since we don't use it elsewhere).

We've done some thinking, and consulted with library and bot developers, and this is the solution that we have come up with! Forgive the link to yet another gist/issue:

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on pull request #2587: Add caveat for different GUILD\_CREATE payload for large guilds

This looks good to me, but is the regular behavior documented? The gateway page documents large_threshold as "value between 50 and 250, total number of members where the gateway will stop sending offline members in the guild member list". Are these numbers still accurate? Isn't there an exception for members with roles?

The "large_threshold" behavior is still correct as documented, this overrides that behavior at the 75k threshold. The exception for members with roles applies to the "l...

A setting to hide the bot's slash commands when the bot is offline. While not useful for all types of applications, it would be very useful for some.

Why This is Needed

Description

The current state of the MANAGE ROLES permission is very inconsistent with the rest of the permission system. The permission behaves differently depending on whether it is used in an override or role. My proposal is to make a channel equivalent of the ADMINISTRATOR permission instead to solve this problem.

I assume that this behavior is intentional, however, when using the Get Guild Bans endpoint for bans registered with the X-Audit-Log-Reason header (or when using both, since reason is ignored when using both) no reason is registered.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2595: Create Guild Ban incorrect ban reason definition with X\-Audit\-Log\-Reason header

This is somewhat confusing but correct behavior. The audit log reason implicitly becomes the ban reason if not otherwise specified. We pick the ban reason as the default audit log reason if not otherwise specified - because it's a sensible default. However creating a ban has a reason, and so does creating an audit log entry. Thus why the more specific header wins for the audit log reason, but not the ban reason.

Somewhat odd side effect of how things work. But working as intended.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2601: Editing a message in a specific guild doesn't update it

Had some time to test a bit more on this, and found out the root cause. This can actually be reproduced in any guild. If you are missing the Embed Links permission when trying to send/edit a message (with no content) to show an embed, the REST API won't send a Forbidden 403: 'Missing Permissions' as expected (which is what it sent when you try to send an embed only with the permission disabled).

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2528: Service account/guild concept for full e2e testing

This would be great. Additionally, it would be ideal if test guild channels were not subject to rate limiting. Since tests may be run in parallel, they can easily run into rate-limits. As long as test guilds have a small number of members, increasing the rate limits for messages posted to those guilds shouldn't increase load too much.

For certain command patterns like dice-rolling, it's common to implement parsing bot-side. e.g. /roll 4d8 + 2. I suppose a workaround could be to pack these into an "expression" argument, but that could be unclear to users.

Perhaps an alternative design could be an implicit, unnamed string argument that command-implementers may parse on their end:

This isn't enough information to go on. It is entirely possible your bot is not receiving the exit events because it's disconnected from the server while those events occur.

If that's the case and the bot re-connects, it would receive a new set of voice_states on the GUILD_CREATE message for the given server, which will have the list of current voice states that will then be kept up-to-date until the connection to the given guild is restarted.

Any chance of "bot name is thinking" being customisable? whether returned in the deferred response, or set globally on the bot.

@MeguminSama you could technically customize this yourself but not doing a deferred message and sending an immediate response that looks like a loading message. Customizing that system string is not something planned.

Just to be clear, with these changes there is no way to respond without a channel message correct? E.g. Some of my commands currently use ACK with source and send a message with the bot separately that gets deleted next time the command is used.

How would this work for (the bot) uploading an attachment in the response? Currently, its ack -> followup and attachments can be uploaded in the followup, but uploading attachments probably won't be possible when editing the initial response.

@A5rocks pointed out on Discord that the "thinking" message can probably be removed with the Delete Original Interaction Response endpoint; this would be useful for commands where the bot doesn't send a response or doesn't want to show the command sou...

without getting into technical specifics, internally emojis are keyed off of name and/or id. we used to do optimizations on this route by relying on the emoji name as a source of truth for certain requests when specified alongside of the id. while we eventually stopped allowing arbitrary names to be passed along, we still keep the same api path. this is not likely to change, and we recommend still passing the correct emoji name to prevent your request from breaking down the road.

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #2678 Hiding slash command arguments from being broadcasted

Description

It should be possible to set a slash command as "private", which would prevent the arguments from being broadcasted in chat.

Why This is Needed

Would be useful for bots with authentication features - such as linking other accounts to the bot, or entering potentially sensitive info that you wouldn't want random users to see at all.

Alternatives Considered

I mean, the bot can just delete the message, but that seems inefficient.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2678: Hiding slash command arguments from being broadcasted

I'm not against the idea, but if you feel you need to hide a command's parameters, I might suggest looking into other solutions.

For example, perhaps you could ask for all the non-sensitive info in the command's parameters. When the user uses it, it'll hold onto that info for a moment, and then direct them to the bot's DMs (or even the bot's website), where the user would enter the "sensitive info" there.

That said, depending on the "potentially sensitive info" you're asking for, I migh...

Specifically it's related to all parsers that consume valid JSON only. Java and JavaScript are among languages that cannot consume large numbers as numbers for one reason or another.

Number in JSON is the same as in JS - a 64-bit IEEE754 binary floating-point number. It has a 53-bit mantissa and that's where the precision limit comes from. If you puke large numbers into it as numbers and not strings, you will break compliant parsers.

I did find some suspicious behavior too:

  • The channel doesn't act as synced when it has an empty overwrite but shows as if it was
  • When you remove all allow/deny permissions in the client it won't delete the @everyone overwrite and it will remain existing for eternity (until a bot removes it)

It may be desirable to have an integration with application commands where most people do not have a role and external emojis disabled. This would make it a requirement to add the bot to the server just to override its permissions to use external emojis.

Since it is really easy to pull out the emoji list from the Discord client, an actual emoji list would not improve any library's quality.

The problem is that list includes VARIANT SELECTOR-16, which the API does not enforce, leaving to cases like this: https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/issues/2723#issuecomment-804304582, which is better seen here https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/issues/2723#issuecomment-804289857

On **October 7, 2020** the events under the `GUILD_PRESENCES` and `GUILD_MEMBERS` intents were turned **off by default on all gateway versions**. If you were using **Gateway v6**, you would have received those events if you had enabled the flags for those intents in the Developer Portal and had been verified if your bot was in 100 or more guilds. You did not need to use Intents on Gateway v6 to receive these events; you just needed to enable the flags.

one thing to consider is that unless you heavily nest commands, in any moderation focused server the moderation commands will take up way more (screen) space than the non-moderation ones, making it extremely difficult to find a usable command for the vast majority of users.

I just discovered this implementation of bot commands via slash and it is very interesting but in the case of my bot, it bases some user commands on a level system and the levels are identifiable within Discord by roles. Likewise my moderation commands are linked to a role rather than a permission.

Simulating Discord permissions does not work in the general case; only 10 overrides are allowed at most.

The muted role in one of my servers has permissions such as "Video" or "Use Slash Commands" enabled for absolutely no reason and discord also has made no effort to communicate to me, as a server moderator/owner, that this has occurred.

There is also no practical use in enabling permissions on every role. The everyone role of a guild is e...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2750: Reactions not being returned correctly for a message

A video showing me adding a different reaction, reloading the client and seeing both the reaction I just added and the original reaction appearing but once I remove the new reaction and reload the old one is gone too:

@GamingGeek This is super interesting. Could you show me what the message payload looks like after you add the extra emoji?
I also noticed that (as the comment above st...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #2750: Reactions not being returned correctly for a message

After the outage yesterday, many current reactions lost their names, thus when you add an additional reaction to a message, the client hits the reaction endpoint directly, and renders all reactions on the message, but leaves the broken reaction with a name of :null:. Re-adding the broken reaction after adding an additional one seems to correct the null name and count bug, but once you re-add the reaction, it must stay there to properly restore the name, leading me to assume it's only rend...

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #2755 Interactions in DMs are not sent over gateway connection

Description

Slash command interactions that take place in a guild can be received by a gateway event, whether that command is guild-scoped or global. However, if a user uses a (global) slash command in a DM with a bot, that interaction is only sent via outgoing webhook (specifically, the ["Interactions Endpoint URL"](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1214564/113235213-89677180-9257-11eb-8cbb-3b0efe711a4b...

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #2756 Sort Guild features in alphabetical order

Description
The current table of listed Guild features is a bit messy because the features are in a seemingly random order in the table.
It would be beneficial to have the entries listed in alphabetical order.

Why This is Needed
Better readability. Instead of constantly looking through the table to find feature X in it can you look at where it should be according to the alphabetical ordering, which in the end helps finding the feature much faster.

**Alternatives Considere...

I see a reaction to my previous message, so I'll try to explain my reaction, and will leave this thread since I've picked another solution to my problem:

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on pull request #2615: Changes to interaction responses and flags

Is there any way to edit/delete the original message if it's ephemeral?

I can PATCH and DELETE at the /@original endpoint just find if I don't set flags, but if I set "flags": 64 on the InteractionApplicationCommandCallbackData then trying to talk to /@original gives me a 404.

Ephemeral messages are not stored so the API does not know it exists once the message is sent, hence the 404

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on pull request #2472: Improve wording

I appreciate the effort put in here, as proofreading these docs is no easy task. Unfortunately, large PRs that focus on rewording docs are a maintainer's nightmare because they are difficult to review, contain many subjective changes, and fall out of date. In cases like these, smaller or more focused PRs are better. It is with a heavy heart that I must close this PR because I do not think it will realistically be merged anytime soon.
