Get Current Autocomplete Field input

[elfin musk]

Is there a way i can get the current user input to an Autocompletion interaction?

public override async Task<AutocompletionResult> GenerateSuggestionsAsync(IInteractionContext context, IAutocompleteInteraction autoCompleteInteraction, IParameterInfo parameter, IServiceProvider services) {...}

    public class EmbedNameAutocompleteHandler : AutocompleteHandler
    {
        public override async Task<AutocompletionResult> GenerateSuggestionsAsync(
            IInteractionContext context,
            IAutocompleteInteraction autocompleteInteraction,
            IParameterInfo parameter,
            IServiceProvider services)
        {
            using var scope = services.CreateGuildScope(context.Guild);

            var value = autocompleteInteraction.GetCurrentParameterValue<string>(parameter);

Yes I figured it out eventually

But there is 1 more thing I need to know.

How can I get the value of the previous autocomplete field

Uhh dunno that one

[elfin musk]

I had it working once

But I don't think I can find the code anymore

But this is the extension method for the above code

[lime gorge]

    public static class IAutocompleteInteractionExtensions
    {
        public static object GetCurrentParameterValue(this IAutocompleteInteraction autocompleteInteraction, IParameterInfo parameterInfo)
        {
            return autocompleteInteraction.Data.Options.First(p => p.Name == parameterInfo.Name).Value;
        }

        public static T GetCurrentParameterValue<T>(this IAutocompleteInteraction autocompleteInteraction, IParameterInfo parameterInfo)
        {
            return (T)GetCurrentParameterValue(autocompleteInteraction, parameterInfo);
        }
    }

For anyone intrested later

[elfin musk]

I found it by doing autoCompleteInteraction.Data.Current.Value

Or autoCompleteInteraction.Current.Data.Value
One of those

I think you always get the current, so you have to store it if you need it later
