Empty embeds array in message object - Discord.js 14

I just switched to discord.js 14 and i'm trying to read the content of an embed sent by the disboard bot. When i console.log the message, i see the following:

<ref *1> Message {
  channelId: '1003514350461530163',

      banner: undefined,
      accentColor: undefined
    }
  }
}

Why is the embeds array empty? I googled it but dosnt seem to find anything on that. thank ya.

EDIT

This is how i fetch the message as asked.

// Require the necessary discord.js classes
const { Client, GatewayIntentBits, IntentsBitField } = require('discord.js');
const { token } = require('./config.json');

const myIntents = new IntentsBitField();
myIntents.add(IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildPresences,IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMessages, IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMembers,GatewayIntentBits.Guilds);

// Create a new client instance
const client = new Client({ intents: myIntents});

// When the client is ready, run this code (only once)
client.once('ready', () => {
    console.log('ready')
});

client.on("messageCreate", message => {
    console.log(message)
    return
})

// Login to Discord with your client's token
client.login(token);

Thank you:)

Solution

  • You don't receive certain fields because you're missing the MESSAGE_CONTENT intent.

    const myIntents = new IntentsBitField();
myIntents.add(
IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildPresences, IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMessages,
IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMembers,GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
IntentsBitFiled.Flags.MessageContent
);

    Also, make sure that you have the MESSAGE_CONTENT privilege enabled at: https://discord.com/developers/applications
