Hey , I'm fairly new to using the javascript client, and I believe I can use it inside of an execute code card, but I'm struggling to create a message (from the bot to the user) with it Maybe this has something to do with this post https://discordapp.com/channels/1108396290624213082/1253354171306872853 @fresh-fireman-491 ?

if i code something like this

Copy code

const messageDetails = {
  payload: {
    text: 'text'
  },
  userId: event.userId,
  conversationId: event.conversationId,
  type: 'text', 
  tags: {}
}

// Send the message using the Botpress API client
client
  .createMessage(messageDetails)
  .then((response) => {
    console.log('Message sent successfully:', response)
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error('Error sending message:', error)

Hum I globally followed the API doc

But that’s not working 😅 Obviously that’s not made for this purpose but I was trying to do so

those api docs are incredibly unhelpful. i ran the code you posted in an exec block but i guess you did the npm botpress client install right? Hmm 403 probably you're not passing up the token correctly. i was playing with the api in postman a little bit and it looks like there are a few x-* fields you need to pass a header. x-bot-id with the id though that is a 400 not 403. could be you're not passing the token up right or its missing the word Bearer in the Authorization. I also saw an x field for the auth when i was searching the discord.

though im a little unclear what client handles/what client calls vs direct api calls vs integration...and again the docs suck. im gonna try and catch their office hours this coming AM. If i get anything that can help you ill let you know
