#Docs say that message.guild returns an object, but in usage, it returns the name of the server?

Hi! I'm learning PyCord, and I have this code:

@bot.event
async def on_message(message: discord.Message):
  print(message.guild)
  guildConfig = jsonHelper.getGuildConfig(str(message.guild.id))

But it keeps erroring out because message.guild.id doesn't exist. There's no "id". But the docs says that there is.

Am I doing something wrong? message.guild exists, but it only returns a string of the server name. There's no object.

it's definitely a guild object

print is just calling __str__ which prints out the name of the guild

#

or __repr__
