Interactions

This sections documents everything related to interactions - special type of webhooks used for communication between user and client. Currently the only things Discord sends interactions for are message components and application commands.

Interaction

Attributes
Methods

A base class representing a user-initiated Discord interaction.

An interaction happens when a user performs an action that the client needs to be notified of. Current examples are application commands and components.

New in version 2.0.

channel

The channel the interaction was sent from.

Note that due to a Discord limitation, threads that the bot cannot access and DM channels are not resolved since there is no data to complete them. These are PartialMessageable instead.

If you want to compute the interaction author’s or bot’s permissions in the channel, consider using permissions or app_permissions instead.

Type:

Returns:

The original interaction response message.

Return type:

InteractionMessage

await edit_original_response(content=..., *, embed=..., embeds=..., file=..., files=..., attachments=..., view=..., components=..., allowed_mentions=None)[source]

This function is a coroutine.

Edits the original, previously sent interaction response message.

This is a lower level interface to InteractionMessage.edit() in case you do not want to fetch the message and save an HTTP request.

This method is also the only way to edit the original response if the message sent was ephemeral.

Note

If the original response message has embeds with images that were created from local files (using the file parameter with Embed.set_image() or Embed.set_thumbnail()), those images will be removed if the message’s attachments are edited in any way (i.e. by setting file/files/attachments, or adding an embed with local files).

Changed in version 2.6: This function was renamed from edit_original_message.

Parameters:

  • content (Optional[str]) – The content to edit the message with, or None to clear it.

  • embed (Optional[Embed]) – The new embed to replace the original with. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter. Could be None to remove the embed.

  • embeds (List[Embed]) – The new embeds to replace the original with. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the embed parameter. To remove all embeds [] should be passed.

  • file (File) – The file to upload. This cannot be mixed with the files parameter. Files will be appended to the message, see the attachments parameter to remove/replace existing files.

  • files (List[File]) – A list of files to upload. This cannot be mixed with the file parameter. Files will be appended to the message, see the attachments parameter to remove/replace existing files.

  • attachments (Optional[List[Attachment]]) –

    A list of attachments to keep in the message. If [] or None is passed then all existing attachments are removed. Keeps existing attachments if not provided.

    New in version 2.2.

    Changed in version 2.5: Supports passing None to clear attachments.

  • view (Optional[View]) – The updated view to update this message with. This cannot be mixed with components. If None is passed then the view is removed.

  • components (Optional[Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[disnake.ui.WrappedComponent]]]]]) –

    A list of components to update this message with. This cannot be mixed with view. If None is passed then the components are removed.

    New in version 2.4.

  • allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) – Controls the mentions being processed in this message. See abc.Messageable.send() for more information.

Raises:

  • HTTPException – Editing the message failed.

  • Forbidden – Edited a message that is not yours.

  • TypeError – You specified both embed and embeds or file and files

  • ValueError – The length of embeds was invalid.

Returns:

The newly edited message.

Return type:

InteractionMessage

await delete_original_response(*, delay=None)[source]

This function is a coroutine.

Deletes the original interaction response message.

This is a lower level interface to InteractionMessage.delete() in case you do not want to fetch the message and save an HTTP request.

Changed in version 2.6: This function was renamed from delete_original_message.

Parameters:

delay (float) – If provided, the number of seconds to wait in the background before deleting the original response message. If the deletion fails, then it is silently ignored.

Raises:
await send(content=None, *, embed=..., embeds=..., file=..., files=..., allowed_mentions=..., view=..., components=..., tts=False, ephemeral=False, suppress_embeds=False, delete_after=...)[source]

This function is a coroutine.

Sends a message using either response.send_message or followup.send.

If the interaction hasn’t been responded to yet, this method will call response.send_message. Otherwise, it will call followup.send.

Note

This method does not return a Message object. If you need a message object, use original_response() to fetch it, or use followup.send directly instead of this method if you’re sending a followup message.

Parameters:

  • content (Optional[str]) – The content of the message to send.

  • embed (Embed) – The rich embed for the content to send. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter.

  • embeds (List[Embed]) – A list of embeds to send with the content. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the embed parameter.

  • file (File) – The file to upload. This cannot be mixed with the files parameter.

  • files (List[File]) – A list of files to upload. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the file parameter.

  • allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) – Controls the mentions being processed in this message. If this is passed, then the object is merged with Client.allowed_mentions. The merging behaviour only overrides attributes that have been explicitly passed to the object, otherwise it uses the attributes set in Client.allowed_mentions. If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

  • tts (bool) – Whether the message should be sent using text-to-speech.

  • view (disnake.ui.View) – The view to send with the message. This cannot be mixed with components.

  • components (Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[disnake.ui.WrappedComponent]]]]) –

    A list of components to send with the message. This cannot be mixed with view.

    New in version 2.4.

  • ephemeral (bool) – Whether the message should only be visible to the user who started the interaction. If a view is sent with an ephemeral message and it has no timeout set then the timeout is set to 15 minutes.

  • suppress_embeds (bool) –

    Whether to suppress embeds for the message. This hides all embeds from the UI if set to True.

    New in version 2.5.

  • delete_after (float) – If provided, the number of seconds to wait in the background before deleting the message we just sent. If the deletion fails, then it is silently ignored.

This function is a coroutine.

Sends a message using either response.send_message or followup.send.

If the interaction hasn’t been responded to yet, this method will call response.send_message. Otherwise, it will call followup.send.

Note

This method does not return a Message object. If you need a message object, use original_response() to fetch it, or use followup.send directly instead of this method if you’re sending a followup message.

Parameters:

  • content (Optional[str]) – The content of the message to send.

  • embed (Embed) – The rich embed for the content to send. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter.

  • embeds (List[Embed]) – A list of embeds to send with the content. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the embed parameter.

  • file (File) – The file to upload. This cannot be mixed with the files parameter.

  • files (List[File]) – A list of files to upload. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the file parameter.

  • allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) – Controls the mentions being processed in this message. If this is passed, then the object is merged with Client.allowed_mentions. The merging behaviour only overrides attributes that have been explicitly passed to the object, otherwise it uses the attributes set in Client.allowed_mentions. If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

  • tts (bool) – Whether the message should be sent using text-to-speech.

  • view (disnake.ui.View) – The view to send with the message. This cannot be mixed with components.
