Disable select menu after use - interaction.update()

    const tempComponent = interaction.message.components[0];
    tempComponent.components[0].disabled = true;

    await interaction.update({
      components: [tempComponent],
    });

    const tempComponent = interaction.message.components[0];
    tempComponent.components[0].disabled = true;

    await interaction.update({
      components: [tempComponent],
    });

Hello, I want to disable a select menu after use with the interaction.update() function, because it didn't work with an interaction.message.edit(). I think it's over for me :')

without seeing more of your code, I'd assume the message is ephemeral this error is exactly the reason you'd prefer interaction.update() over interaction.message.edit() ephemeral messages can only be edited through interactions they cannot be edited through the normal "Edit message" endpoint <MessageComponentInteraction>.update() responds to the interaction by editing the component's message <Message>.edit() will attempt to edit the message as normal, unrelated to any interaction especially since all interactions need responses in order to prevent the user from receiving some "The application did not respond" error, you'd definitely want to use interaction.update() since you don't appear to be responding to it elsewhere
