raise CommandInvokeError(self, e) from e
discord.app_commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command 'test' raised an exception: Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50013): Missing Permissions
Constantly getting this error, even though my bot has administrator permissions, also the role is located at the top of the tree.
Evem with all of this, I continuously get the error of missing permissions. My role is located underneath the bot’s and also has administrative permissions, so I’m not quite sure why this problem is happening.
@tree.command(name='test', description='testing the bot', guild=guild)
async def self(interaction: discord.Interaction, user:discord.User, *, nickname:str):
await interaction.user.edit(nick=nickname)
await interaction.response.send_message(user.mention, ephemeral=True)
>Solution :
I think the issue is that you’re using interaction.user and not user. interaction.user is the user that invoked the command. As this is likely you, the server owner, it fails as a bot can’t edit the server owner’s nickname.
@tree.command(name='test', description='testing the bot', guild=guild)
async def test(interaction: discord.Interaction, user: discord.User, *, nickname: str):
await user.edit(nick=nickname)
await interaction.response.send_message(user.mention, ephemeral=True)
Additionally, it might be worth explicitly adding the "manage nicknames" permission as well.
