Execute something after return

I want to use Workers AI on Discord through my bot, AI content takes a long time to generate, so I need to respond Discord first and update the result later. Is there a way to solve it? By the way, how do I get my account ID?

Let me answer your second question first, your account id can be found in multiple locations: go to workers & pages in the dashboard, and find it on the right hand side in a click-to-copy box. It is also in the url, a long hexadecimal string As for the first one, workers have a special way to achieve this: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/handlers/fetch/#contextwaituntil In that waitUntil, put your promise that resolves after the initial response, so your code looks something like this:

context.waitUntil(aiPromise.then(someResponseModification).then(editMessage))
return new Response(...)

context.waitUntil(aiPromise.then(someResponseModification).then(editMessage))
return new Response(...)

Thanks for your help, I copied example from Discord documentation, it doesn’t have the context argument. How can I use it?

router.post('/', async (request, env) => {

router.post('/', async (request, env) => {

hmm, what router is that example using?

Here is the example: https://github.com/discord/cloudflare-sample-app/blob/main/src/server.js

Just add a third param, after env async (request, env, ctx) => { https://github.com/kwhitley/itty-router#4-only-one-required-argument--the-rest-is-up-to-you

const server = {
  verifyDiscordRequest: verifyDiscordRequest,
  fetch: async function (request, env, env) {
    return router.handle(request, env, env);
  },
};

const server = {
  verifyDiscordRequest: verifyDiscordRequest,
  fetch: async function (request, env, env) {
    return router.handle(request, env, env);
  },
};

Modify the server object at the bottom as well to include them, like this
