TypeError: (data.name ?? channel.name).trim is not a function

Hello everyone! My idea is for the bot to record the number of players in the name of the voice channel every 10 minutes

const channelPlaying = client.channels.cache.get(...);

setInterval(function () {
  ...

  function getPlaying() {
      return fetch(APILink).then(res=>res.json()).then(jsonData=>jsonData.data[0].playing)
  };
  getPlaying().then(playing=>channelPlaying.setName(playing)
}, 10 * 60 * 1000);

const channelPlaying = client.channels.cache.get(...);

setInterval(function () {
  ...

  function getPlaying() {
      return fetch(APILink).then(res=>res.json()).then(jsonData=>jsonData.data[0].playing)
  };
  getPlaying().then(playing=>channelPlaying.setName(playing)
}, 10 * 60 * 1000);

... but this error appears

TypeError: (data.name ?? channel.name).trim is not a function

TypeError: (data.name ?? channel.name).trim is not a function

How can I fix it?

Ratelimits are dynamically assigned by the API based on current load and may change at any point. - The scale from okay to API-spam is sliding and depends heavily on the action you are taking - Rainbow roles, clock and counter channels, and DM'ing advertisements to all members are all examples of things that are not okay

I read that 10 minutes is a valid value Isn't that right? But then why do many other developers use it... Okay... But in any case, I won't get any help? Solve:

const channelPlaying = client.channels.cache.get(...);

setInterval(function () {
  ...

  function getPlaying() {
      return fetch(APILink).then(res=>res.json()).then(jsonData=>jsonData.data[0].playing)
  };
  getPlaying().then(playing => {
    const strPlaying = String(playing).trim();
    channelPlaying.setName(`🎮 Playing: ${strPlaying}`)
  })
}, 10 * 60 * 1000);

const channelPlaying = client.channels.cache.get(...);

setInterval(function () {
  ...

  function getPlaying() {
      return fetch(APILink).then(res=>res.json()).then(jsonData=>jsonData.data[0].playing)
  };
  getPlaying().then(playing => {
    const strPlaying = String(playing).trim();
    channelPlaying.setName(`🎮 Playing: ${strPlaying}`)
  })
}, 10 * 60 * 1000);
