discord.js - Imagine an app•8mo ago

Unknown interaction

Hello I have a problem that I can't figure out. I understand the principle of deferring an answer, but in this case I'm having trouble. What I'd like to do: Change the embed and the drop-down menu each time an answer is selected:

return selectMenu.update({
            ephemeral: true,
            embeds: [nextQuestion.embed],
            components: [nextQuestion.selectmenu]
        });

return selectMenu.update({
            ephemeral: true,
            embeds: [nextQuestion.embed],
            components: [nextQuestion.selectmenu]
        });

It works great! But from time to time (very rarely), this error is generated: DiscordAPIError[10062]: Unknown interaction How to correct it? Thanks!

I can defer() an update() ?

d.js docs•8mo ago

StringSelectMenuInteraction#update() Updates the original message of the component on which the interaction was received on.

treble/luna•8mo ago

wait

d.js docs•8mo ago

StringSelectMenuInteraction#deferUpdate() Defers an update to the message to which the component was attached.

Thank you I'm trying to reproduce the problem: if I wait 20 seconds (for example) to select an answer, it updates correctly without using defer().

treble/luna•8mo ago

the time you wait has nothing to do here

Mathias•8mo ago

Oh no, okay, I misunderstood: we're talking about the server that takes more than 3 sec.

treble/luna•8mo ago

yes

Mathias•8mo ago

Sorry ! I'll test that, many thanks! 🙌 This means I can postpone my update. But when I update my component, I get the error : Error [InteractionAlreadyReplied]: The reply to this interaction has already been sent or deferred
