[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4584: Make the bot profile show what privileged intents the bot is approved for

Currently, there is no way for end users to know whether a bot can fetch memberships, presence data, and message content. With this implemented, the profile of the bot would display something like:

  • cannot read messages in the servers it is in
  • can fetch your presence status if you share servers with this bot
  • can fetch memberships of the servers it is in

While developer portal has this info, it is currently only accessible to bot owner itself, making it only useful for ...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4584: Make the bot profile show what privileged intents the bot is approved for

Just like lambda people might not know what the "identify" scope is, but Discord shows a more friendly description when people are asked to grant access to their account. People not knowing what intents do is not an issue as it can simply be explained directly with sentences like "this bot can access your status" and the likes, maybe hyperlinking longer support articles on the topic

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4585: Copy\-id feature

I am Zina and I propose a new discord feature.

Copy id feature for slash commands when right clicking one if the user has developer mode enabled

Alternatives considered

Sending slash command in client
Monitoring request data and copying the id from that tab

this is not a good idea because I always in a voice-channel streaming and my user account token gets exposed when scrolling down to the request payload and some bad user can steal my user token and...

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #4586 Optional attachment options in slash commands are not working correctly on Android/mobile

Description

Commands which feature optional attachment options seem to not work as intended. Trying to omit the option and hitting the send message button forces the attachment option to pop up (including file picker), and supplying an attachment per the app's whims causes the interaction to fail anyways. This behavior does not happen on desktop, untested on the web version.

I assume these two issues are unrelated, but I am including the second issue just in case.

It was my intention but sometimes one forgets things. I'll close this out under the assumption that it was just reporting the client cutting off requests too soon. If someone finds that they are receiving interactions that immediately 404 when acking, I'd ask for a separate issue with:

  • the interaction's id

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4607: Add a description to modals

Modals are really good for getting user input, but right now they don't give much towards explaining to the user what the modal does / will do. Currently the only options for displaying data to the user while they are filling out a modal is the title and the text components, which are fairly limited.
A description would allow more information to be presented to the user while they are filling out a modal.

[discord-api-docs] Discussion #4545 marked answered: Dynamic load slash command list through interactions\.

I think this poses way too many architectual challenges to implement feasibly.

Things like

  • Discord has to send out interactions to every single application in the server
  • Handling of the 100% will be happening race conditions of different applications responding
  • Somehow displaying to the user what is happening
  • Loading the slash command list is a blocking operation, you cannot send a message that starts with / until the list has loaded, which is already slow for some
  • etc..

[discord-api-docs] Discussion #4545 marked unanswered: Dynamic load slash command list through interactions\.

It would be nice if instead of bots having to register their commands through API, they could return their command list dynamically when requested through an interaction, which would give the bot more control of where, when and who is requesting their command list and what commands should be returned, and also allow them to update instantly and without limits their command list.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4525: Add a POST /invites/\{invite\.code\} code

this doesn't make any sense. the bot would still need the Create Invite permission to create the invite, and it would be a pointless headache to get the users to authorize via oauth2, when currently they can skip all of that by just clicking a link to the invite, which is better than this request in every way. I would not make the bot use this, and this request still seems totally useless to me. literally just link to the discord.gg url directly.

While what suspense mentioned seems like a far more sane solution/implementation, I personally can't think of anything a user would do outside of OAuth2 that would prompt for a 2FA code. Even bots with [mass-]moderation functionality have limited ability over a server and its members, especially when you take into consideration ratelimits.

Its best practice (and recommended) for libraries to ignore unknown/undocumented fields. If a library chooses not to do that, or a bot using the raw API chooses not to do that, that's on them as undocumented fields are added and removed literally all the time.

As for the other complaint, its an outage, unexpected behavior is expected. Its not production behavior, it doesn't need to be documented, and can't be documented. When things break, weird things happen, deal with it.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4562: 2FA authorization in modals

Exactly my concern @imranbarbhuiya

Moreover, the whole point of using 2FA in commands is to prevent compromised accounts from using the commands right?
But if an account with 2FA enabled got compromised in the first place, there's a high chance that they have the means to get the 2FA code as well. Which totally defeats the purpose of enforcing it in a command.

But if we're using it just for the sake of confirmation, something like "Type the command name to confirm" should suffice.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4627: Allow Custom Error Messages

If the user is scrolled back far enough (around 50 messages), the client will no longer show ephemeral messages. This means it is nearly impossible to actually respond with an error on those kinds of situations. This applies to all context menu commands and all component interactions. Errors could be shown identically to current client errors under a button for example, which is arguably a better user experience.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4627: Allow Custom Error Messages

It's just better UX, that's all.

I can't see how this would improve the UX. If anything, it would make it harder to tell whether an error came from Discord or the bot, and would limit flexibility in what and how information is provided with the error, because of the inability to use an embed. Having several lines of red text on a dark background isn't great for accessibility either, so messages would have to be shorter than with a regular response.

Of course, bots wouldn't have to u...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4627: Allow Custom Error Messages

You said it didn't have "any error responses that work consistently", I interpreted that to be a different problem than the one mentioned earlier. I do see your point that there isn't a great way to present errors for context menu commands, and I agree it should be solved, but that seems to me like a different problem to the one discussed here, and one that should have its own discussion.

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4631: Allow Modal popups on Interaction followup

Currently, Modals can only be sent in the initial response to an interaction.
While this seems like a good UX practice as it makes us respond to the interaction as soon as possible, it's a strict limitation. There are edge cases where we need to defer the response and then send the Modal in a followup.

Here are 2 example use cases:

  1. We need to a perform a slightly time consuming computation (or maybe a DB call) before populating the labels for the TextBoxes on the Modal.

[discord-api-docs] Discussion #4350 marked answered: Allow Discord bots to set backup interaction endpoint\.

If you have support built for it, why aren't your interactions REST already? Discord built this system with the gateway pain points in mind. Furthermore, the cases where Discord goes down only for bots and not for users aswell are so rare that it just doesn't make sense to have a backup in place.

If you want commands to be more reliable, just use REST as the default. It's a dedicated service for bots and will probably prove itself as the more reliable option (to us, it already has).

I agree with community members in this case, but not due to networking issues.

One major benefit to interactions is that you can deploy discord bots to serverless functions (lamda, azure, etc.). Function instances like these have a 'cold start' delay that can take a few seconds to receive and route an interaction and startup the function instance.

Thanks for the report. Interaction successes and failures strictly occur when there is an issue in the send -> receive flow for interactions. The interaction here did succeed, as the bot replied to it with a valid interaction callback. However, since the bot failed to supply a valid message payload its update was not persisted in interaction post processing. Validation errors can occur in numerous post-command operations (including deferred operations bots run within their platform).

Thanks for the report. As stated earlier this behavior appears working as intended, as unspecified fields are interpreted with defaults in mind. As for why garbage fields appear discarded, it is because our API ignores fields which it does not know about. Similar to consumers ignoring new fields, our API will also ignore new fields. This helps keep backwards and forwards compatibility.

This behavior looks correct to me. By sending type 7 you are submitting a message update to our server, which is then triggering a MESSAGE_UPDATE event that causes a rerender of the message in clients (telling the client to set the defaults back for components in the message). As stated above components are locally stored state, so the only way to keep persisted state is to set those values as new defaults when updating the message.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on issue #4573: Guild Scheduled Event not sent with the guild payload if event channel not viewable by bot

Thanks for the report. This behavior looks intended as we gate the ability to see an event by your access to the channel. GET on the event with its id should also return you a Missing Access error.

Whats the reason for sending channels with the guild payload then when they can't be viewed ? These kind of inconsistencies are what makes an API a pain to work with.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4666: User Based / Personal Slash Commands

This is a super cool idea that unfortunately requires a ton of work. We would basically have to refactor our entire auth system to support it, which is not in scope for any foreseeable future.

I, personally, like the idea a lot. It's on my mind of "cool things we could do" but is not planned nor is it likely to be planned.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New review comment on pull request #4653: Slash command localization 
While most endpoints that return application command objects will return the `name_localizations` and `description_localizations` fields, some will not.  This includes `GET` endpoints that return all of an application's guild or global commands.  Instead, those endpoints will supply additional `name_localized` or `description_localized` fields, which only contain the localization relevant to the requester's locale.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New review comment on pull request #4653: Slash command localization 
Slash commands can be localized, which will cause them to use localized names and descriptions depending on the client's selected language. This is entirely optional.  Localization is available for names and descriptions of commands, subcommands, and options, as well as the names of choices, by submitting the appropriate `name_localizations` and `description_localizations` fields when creating or updating the application command.

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4673: Top\-level commands ought to be executed independently of their subcommands\.

This might have been intended behavior, but it makes subcommands somewhat handicapped for top-level commands to be practically useless in implementation if they aren't able to be used independently from subcommands.

I'm sure I'm not the only bot developer whose bot currently uses a standard subcommand structure like +version and +version set which do different things, this is a pretty common paradigm in bot commands that has seemingly been ignored.

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4678: Create CHANNEL\_SELECT IPC event

It would be great to have an event fired when a text channel is selected or left. This would allow my external app to track if a user has possibly seen notifications from the NOTIFICATION_CREATE event. Currently there is no way to follow up when a cached notification should be removed. Adding this event will at least provide a semi-reliable way of knowing when the user has come across their new message/mention in a text channel.

This is not a bug. Bots intentionally cannot edit command permissions in servers with Command Permissions v2 (currently rolled out to 1% of community servers). An OAuth2 scope will be released to allow dashboards to edit permissions of specific commands on behalf of a server admin.

So I think for starters, given the use-case outlined in https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/pull/3757#issuecomment-911994541 we should 100% document the channel type. Thanks for that.

Now for the rest of the information in added in this PR. So right now Student Hubs is stable and shipped, but really intended as a place for humans only. Therefore, we have an opinion...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on pull request #4701: Document Student Hubs

Are hubs always going to be exclusive for school/university, or will we be able to create our own at some point (maybe with the ability to add bots)

I don't really want to get involved in "what is the future of hubs". For the purposes of this PR let's assume that nothing with hubs is gonna change for the foreseeable future.

But for this specific question we have no plans for people to create their own hubs right now.

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4723: Interaction protocol links

What

When a bot specifies interaction://custom_id as a link's location, it should trigger an interaction with that id from the message similar to a message component when a user clicks the link.

Why

Currently, message components take up a lot of space on a message and are always underneath all the text and images. This would allow for interactable objects to be inline with text or even work on an embed title, author, or footer (see images below as an example). Two of these button...

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #4725: API v6 decommission extension

Hello everyone,

Another update on decommission plans for deprecated API versions. We’ve spent some more time considering how we intend to perform API decommissions and have decided to extend the API v6 decommission to 2023 to match the v7 timeline.

Our decision is based on several reasons:

  1. Giving ample notice to developers who do not monitor the Discord Developers server or Discord API docs
  2. The population of existing bots on v6
  3. Consistency in how we apply our decomm...

Giving ample notice to developers who do not monitor the Discord Developers server or Discord API docs

i don't mean to be that guy but isn't this the developers responsibility? if they notice their discord applications that are using v6 api aren't working, then i'm sure they will look into it, right? plus, isn't v6 the version the last version that is keeping self botting alive and well?

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4715: Include permission overwrites in slash command channel entities

it is not worth sending what could be a lot of data in every interaction

I'm a little confused by this. Not every interaction that's sent across the gateway is a slash command interaction, and not every slash command interaction is for a command that specifically contains a (resolved) channel entity. I completely understand the concern about sending extra/unnecessary data across the gateway, but this could be said for a lot of events in general. I can't imagine that the vast majority of ...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4725: API v6 decommission extension

When you use a library that uses v6, that might be a version of the library which released over 5 years ago. In that time frame, a lot can change, and the library will most likely have received breaking changes or entire rewrites. It is not as simple as updating a number in a config somewhere, often it involves a far bigger change and potentially rewrite of large sections of bot code. You are grossly underestimating the cost of updating a library.

plus, isn't v6 the version that is keepi...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4725: API v6 decommission extension

Well me personally, I use discord.js on the latest version. I don't underestimate anything - I maintain many bots and I have had times where i've has to completely rewrite bits of the bot and even do stuff more recently like add support for slash commands & normal chat commands both at the same time, depending on what a guild wants. Trust me - I understand but it's really not that hard if you put some time into it.

No, the client and self bots can use any API version. This is completely ir...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #3543: Message component for user text input

Text inputs can be putted in the message

No they cannot. Please stop spreading misinformation. Discord intentionally did not make text inputs available inside messages, to prevent moving input boxes due to scrolling and message deletions. Text inputs can only be used inside modals, and that seems likely to hold true for the foreseeable future.
Sorry, I didn't readed docs, only changelog. Also, it's in the message components category

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #3543: Message component for user text input

This is more than likely to avoid fragmenting what's already a pretty shattered documentation structure, as well as how these are probably handled internally. For all intents and purposes, text inputs are just a component like any other, with some restrictions. They have a type (4), custom_id, etc, and given it's currently the only component that isn't/can't be attached to a message, it simply doesn't make sense to slap this into it's own section.
