[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #3309: Slash Commands Permission relies on Send Messages

This would be awesome to have for many reasons.
My use cases are having a channel dedicated to instruction on how to use specific command(s) and being able to use them there (with ephemeral responses) so the channel doesn't get flooded with responses.

Another case is having a specific channel used for displaying user inputted data in a specific format. This requires another channel to be designated as a "submission" channel.

I'd love it if this was revisited.

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #5076 Clarification about removal of nonce field

Description

The nonce field was removed from the Channel -> Create Message endpoint without any notice in following PR: #2859
The PR was not even closely related to thr nonce field at all.

Confusing is that most libraries are still providing access to this field even it is not documented anymore.

As well does the Message object still contain the nonce field.

Thereby I ask for clarification if the nonce field has been deprecated or was removed from the documentation ...

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #5077: Suggestion: Allow to overwrite or remove Built\-in Slash commands

Hello, first time posting here. In the past months of using slash commands I've found myself wanting to remove the amazingly persistent and annoying built-in slash commands (/ban, /tableflip (honestly how old are we), /shrug etc etc). I have a personal ban command that logs the ban to a channel in a personal format, but with the built in command being named the same I am unable to expect my /ban to be tabbed to the right command and have to consciously pay attention to not use the built in co...

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #5086 Guild MFA level can be set to True or False, or raises 500s

Description

The mfa_level requirement of a guild can be set to true or false, when it should be restricted to 0 or 1. This breaks api clients which expect the level to be 0 or 1, and not a boolean.

Steps to Reproduce

curl -X POST 'https://discord.com/api/v10/guilds/:id/mfa' \
  -H 'authorization: Bot ' \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{"level": true}'

This will set the level to true for that guild, when it should be 1 or 0.

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #5087: Heroku tutorial should be removed

The new commit https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/commit/0436db025f7a552df36d48243330cd4b878d57b5 regarding a tutorial on using Heroku for hosting is a very bad idea.

These are some points that were sourced from communities of developers:

  • Bots are not what the platform is designed for. Heroku is designed to provide web servers (like Django, Flask, etc). This is why they give you a domain name and open a port on their local emulator.

  • Heroku's environment is heavily contai...

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #5088: Make GUILD\_MEMBER\_CHUNK asynchronous

As usual, if this has been duped, my search-fu has failed me again.

What

As it stands right now, when requesting guild members, you submit a command to the gateway, and receive the members and you receive GUILD_MEMBER_CHUNK in 1K chunks. This is great, you know all the members on that server, and you can go about your day.

The issue here is that this does not scale well, rather, it doesn't scale well for bots.
When you request members, chunking isn't handled like normal ev...

Hey,

Allowing application command use in channels where you can't send messages can be helpful for a variety of reasons, including:

As far as I can see for now, clients can send an "afk" with its status to update. Why can't bots receive that?

There was a bot before that was able to manage it before the setting was added iirc. it would also be possible to make channels not move members to afk if the user goes afk. it would also be possible to move a user to audience in stage channel...

Additionally it would make sense to expand this to the resolved channels as well. Its all fine and gravy to check if a member has permission to do something in that channel, but it makes no difference if the bot can't do that too.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #3229: ARM and ARM64 Game SDK

The last update was in 2020 and it didn't have ARM64 support. I think it's safe to assume the GameSDK has been effectively abandonned. I've already ripped it out of my codebase because of issues which haven't been fixed.

Actually, it turns out that there is in fact ARM support and the SDK is still bring updated.
It seems like it's the documentation/links that haven't been updated, however the "latest version" points to the correct one.

There's a system/app that I've been desiring for many years that doesn't exist yet, and I only recently realized how easy it would be to make.

The embeds can contain unfurled links in the case of embed images, which I believe is the primary goal of this permission. The reason to disable this permission, is to prevent users from sending images via links, in my experience at least.

That's beside the point. Unless its a security threat or actively being abused then at minimum there should be some advance notice before a breaking change. Posting the changelog of a change that is breaking after making the change is basically the complete opposite of what is supposed to occur.

The definition of a breaking change does not alter depending on the amount of people relying on current behaviour, the discord developers server demonstrated many people rely on the documented behaviour as it should not have changed before v11.

The API documentation states that the Global Rate Limit is 50 requests per second.

Here is a scenario that currently occurs occasionally in interaction with the Discord API using a global bucket rate limit with a 1 second expiry time. The endpoint used in this scenario does NOT provide rate limit headers (potentially intended) contrary to https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/issues/1808#issuecomment-658535754.

In addition, please add how we determine which requests route to a bucket. The documentation states:

Per-route rate limits exist for many individual endpoints, and may include the HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE). In some cases, per-route limits will be shared across a set of similar endpoints, indicated in the X-RateLimit-Bucket header. It's recommended to use this header as a unique identifier for a rate limit, which will allow you to group shared limits as you encounter them.

The permission to Manage N also includes the ability to Delete N. Any possibilities that gives the permission to Manage N can be undone. For example, if a user accidentally moves a channel to another category, this can be corrected by a reverse action. This applies to any action that depends on the permission to Manage N, except deletion.

There are three potential cases:

  2. You hit a global rate limit, which should showcase a Retry-After header (of around 1 second).
  3. You were Cloudflare banned, which should showcase a Retry-After header (of around 50 minutes).

Rate limit scope isn't required for this to be a bug, but a missing Retry-After header would be.

  • There isn't any classic (user) ratelimit on this endpoint, because there isn't any major parameter (guild or channel id) that can be used. This explains why there is not any X-Ratelimit-* headers returned on success responses.
  • However, there is a shared rate limit (likely per guild or per channel) on deleting invites. You only get a X-RateLimit-Scope: shared and Retry-After headers when exceeding it.

I think the same should be done for users, you could right click a user and get an option like Copy User Link just like with messages, and then send that to others, for which this user would pop up in their app (instead of opening the users profile in the browser / on a new tab).

This is different from mentions, since sometime...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #5183: Open a users profile when sending a link like https://discord\.com/users/USER\_ID

Yep, better overall deep linking is sorely needed. There's so many links that do actually work but boot you out of discord for a split second for some reason. (worth noting that using the protocol link will avoid this for desktop clients but those have a whole set of bugs that I don't want to get in to).

Every link is checked anyways and most show a pop up, so the potential very miniscule slow down is a non-issue.

[discord/discord-api-docs] Issue opened: #5184 Error when setting param \`offset\` to value more than 5000\. \(NUMBER\_TYPE\_MAX\)

Description

I'm getting error when trying to get messages from offset more than 5000. It can also be seen in Discord client when going to search area in DM and searching for messages from specific author then going to page more than 200 (beacuse 200*25=5000)

Of course you need to be authenticated.

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #5191: Allow bots to trigger interactions

Proposal

Allow bots to trigger interactions of other bots just like users can

Why?

The restriction of not being able to trigger interactions blocks the possibilty of e2e testing for bots. We can do unit/integration tests for internal functionality, but we can't do end to end testing to verify that the bot actually works with Discord.

This worked with message commands as the "QA Bot" was able to just send a command via message and then check which actions the bot under test h...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #3581: API plans

Thanks for the transparency on your roadmap. I've looked through documentation/developer server etc and today it seems there is no API for extracting Server Insights. Whilst the Server Insights UI is helpful I expect community managers of larger guilds would want a means to pull in the same data into their own dashboards, to combine with other data they may have (e.g. in Datastudio). The activity in Discord, is typically part of a multifaceted approach by a community or brand, so getting at l...

Couple of things:

  • I don't think adding the language of "available" guild makes sense since we just call it a guild object everywhere else.

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4070: Character limit on SlashCommand strings

I have the same problem.
The limit is very little, in the case of having subcommand groups for example.

Since you have to be putting all the short descriptions and if it is not enough you are forced to create a subcommand with the same name but with something different.

For example command-name reached the limit by the group of subcommands so now you are forced to create a command command-name-2 in order to achieve your goal. Because you don't create another command with a different name if...

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #4070: Character limit on SlashCommand strings

Reminder that its only the name, description, and value properties of the command and its subcommands that count.

Though to be fair, I have a command with 2 subcommand groups each with 3 subcommands (and 18 total options) and I'm at 2526 characters.
This command looks quite large due to displaying subcommands, so collapsing subcommands might be a prereq for an increased character limit.

I have a proposal that may be rather unique to my command structure but I'm guessing its not so her...

That's a great idea! For my command structure you can see in the gist something like arguments which you can give more than 1 time would be great since I'm asking for ~20 different roles and I could do that with one argument which can take 20 roles or one argument which can be used a set amount of times... For people who do not use arguments that require 20 times the same input type/ the same argument, the limit could be moved to no "global" limits for top level commands and groups but the X0...

[discord-api-docs] New discussion #5203: Add support for custom URI schemes in embed links

Many applications and games use custom URI schemes to allow linking in-game content, joining sessions or calling certain actions.
From my testing however, when adding a link to an embed created by a bot account, only http:// and https:// protocols are actually carried over into the href property of the message, I could not get other URI protocols working.

Therefore I'm suggesting adding support for custom URI schemes, which would be rather simple to implement (simply allow any protocol to...

Example Use Case

[discord/discord-api-docs] New comment on discussion #5191: Allow bots to trigger interactions

If this was added, I'd want it to be settable by developers to allow or not allow bot interactions (ideally with the default being off). While the use-case provided here would be nice, allowing all bots to interact with other bots could lead to abuse, spamming, or automation of intentionally-not-automated tasks. Filtering out the interactions from a bot would be trivial, but it could end up being a lot of unnecessary traffic (especially in a targeted attack).

Why should the subcommand limit change?
Many developers have more than 100 commands and thus they will be forced to use subcommands to accommodate for those extra commands. But you can only have 25 subcommands per command and this forces developers to resort to stuff like this:
/image commands1 (command:avatar) /image commands2 (command:invert) /image commands3 (command:whatever) etc
Or
/image1 avatar /image2 invert etc
How on earth is the user supposed to know what category i...

You do not understand my suggestion properly,
The command option was merely one of the examples i provided - I also provided the option of using /image1 /image2 etc. That was not a suggestion, merely an observation and I will redact it to avoid confusion.

If a bot had 50 slash commands discord could calculate that each slash command could have 50 subcommands, 100 --> 25 etc. If the developer increase the number of slash commands they had to 100 the number of subcommands per command could...
