HTTP API v10 does not provide message content even when bot has message content intent #4552

Closed onerandomusername closed 2 years ago

onerandomusername commented 2 years ago

Description

Fetching a message with Get Channel Message with message content intent enabled will not provide any additional information that the message content intent is supposed to provide.

Steps to Reproduce

Enable message content intent in dev portal
Using api v10, fetch a message with Get Channel Message that would not provide the message content to the bot if it did not have the intent (eg: message must be in a guild, and not mentioning the bot)

Expected Behavior

Message has content, since the bot has the intent enabled in the dev portal.

Current Behavior

Message has no content provided.

Update: this is also applicable to Get Channel Messages

I figured out a solution to those possibly affected. Toggle any intent, and save it. Then toggle it back and save again. This triggers some sort of internal syncing on discord's end and will provide message content when using the HTTP API.

Leaving this open for now as its still a bug nonetheless. Additionally verified bots are not able to toggle any intents above if they are impacted.

At this point, this problem has inverted itself, and I always receive message content on one of my bots over the HTTP API even if I have the intent off in the dev portal. I am using HTTP API v10.

@onerandomusername thanks for the report! can you provide us with an application and bot user ID?

Can confirm this is still happening, had a report from a D++ user of the same issue via REST requests: Bot ID: 797612182610378835

@braindigitalis If you toggle message content intent on and off in the dashboard, does that change anything?

yonilerner commented 2 years ago

We had a bug that caused the developer dashboard to incorrectly update necessary data to serve message content over HTTP and sometimes gateway. The bug is fixed now. If your message content is not working as expected you may have to toggle the flag in the dashboard, unfortunately.
