Is there a way to get slash command option values even after the slash command leads to a modal?
Hi! So I was told to use a collector for this, but I'm not sure how exactly it works. I was taking a look at this. The
.then(): was it for after the modal submission? Is it a replacement for async execute() for the modal?discord.js Guide

ChatInputCommandInteraction#awaitModalSubmit()
Collects a single modal submit interaction that passes the filter. The Promise will reject if the time expires.right
when is the
.then() taking place? I guess that's after the modal submission?
Or I guess my question is: How can I get that slash command's option value after the modal submission?<ChatInputCommandInteraction>.options
just like you would regularly
you can choose to await or to use a then
if function is async but you're using
then - use awaitMay I ask for an example, please?
Is this before
showModal()?
How can the bot hold onto the first interaction?you still have access to it
oh? how can I retrieve it?
so the modal submission interaction includes the slash command interaction?
no
you call awaitModalSubmit on the interaction
