Send Embed as Ephemeral

[true copper]

I want to send en embed as ephemeral but idk how.

My Code:

class LimitModal(ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs, timeout=None)

        self.add_item(ui.InputText(
            label="Voice Channel Limit setzen", style=InputTextStyle.short))

    async def callback(self, interaction: Interaction):

        voicechannel = interaction.user.voice.channel
        await voicechannel.edit(user_limit=self.children[0].value)

        embed = Embed(
            title=f"✅ Channel Limit wurde auf {self.children[0].value} Member gesetzt.")
        channel = await interaction.guild.fetch_channel(1087350554977640508)

        await interaction.response.send_message(f"Voice Channel wurde erfolgreich bearbeitet", ephemeral=True)
        await channel.send(embed=embed)

You can't send an ephemeral embed to a channel? Who's the embed going to be visible for?

The whole point of ephemeral is that only a user can see them, how would a channel see it?

[true copper]

thats the point, i want to send the embed in the channel for the user who used this class

[true copper]

ik thats what my point is

i mean on another code snipped i did this

await interaction.followup.send(embed=embed, ephemeral=True)

but now i cant do that cause i need to send it into the right channel

[dawn pebble]

You can't send ephemeral messages to any other channel than the interaction happened in. It can't be done without a response or followup

[true copper]

so what im trying is not possible?

[dawn pebble]

If what you're trying is to send ephemeral messages out of nowhere in another channel, no, it's not possible

[true copper]

is there any possible to set in a response the channel ?

[true copper]

well not really its just in my class he doesnt know what channel he should use, so technically yes its "another channel" but at the same time its the channel i called this class in

[dawn pebble]

So what's wrong with using interaction.response then?

[true copper]

so look, my thats my button calss:

class ChannelSettingsButtonView(ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)
  @ ui.button(emoji="👥", style=ButtonStyle.primary)
    async def limit_button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_modal(LimitModal(title="Limit"))

and thats my modal class:

class LimitModal(ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs, timeout=None)

        self.add_item(ui.InputText(
            label="Voice Channel Limit setzen", style=InputTextStyle.short))

    async def callback(self, interaction: Interaction):

        voicechannel = interaction.user.voice.channel
        await voicechannel.edit(user_limit=self.children[0].value)

        embed = Embed(
            title=f"✅ Channel Limit wurde auf {self.children[0].value} Member gesetzt.")
        channel = await interaction.guild.fetch_channel(1087350554977640508)

        await interaction.response.send_message(f"Voice Channel wurde erfolgreich bearbeitet", ephemeral=True)
        await channel.send(embed=embed)

so in the modal class he doesnt know what channel he should send the message in you know?

why fetch channel? use partial objects

.tag partial

Partial Objects

These can be used to make API calls when you have channel id and/or message id, and you don't want to rely on the cache to have their objects.

Methods which can be used on them are -

• Partial Messageable (analogus to a Channel) : https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.PartialMessageable
• Partial Message (analogous to a Message): https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/data_classes.html#discord.PartialMessage

Example Usage:

async def star_message(channel_id: int, message_id: int):

    # Get Partial Messageable object. Docs-
    # https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_partial_messageable
    partial_channel = bot.get_partial_messageable(channel_id)

    # Get Partial Message. Docs-
    # https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.PartialMessageable.get_partial_message
    partial_message = partial_channel.get_partial_message(message_id)

    # Add a reaction
    await partial_message.add_reaction(":star:")

Did you even try this code?

[true copper]

ye why?

[dawn pebble]

and what error are you getting?

[true copper]

my current code doesnt give me any errors, but it sends 1 responde as normal message in ephemeral and another as embed, but only want the embed in ephemeral

[dawn pebble]

So why can't you include the embed in your interaction.response.send_message?

[true copper]

i think embed doesnt work in send_message?

[dawn pebble]

You think?

[true copper]

nvm i thought xD

[dawn pebble]

Here's a tip, read the docs

[true copper]

i thought i already tested it and it didnt work, but i was wrong

thanks :D
