How to send discord custom emoji from any server using discord.py?

Question

How do I send custom emoji using discord.py that is from another server?

Here is what I've tried:

@client.command()
async def sendemoji(ctx):
    emoji = client.get_emoji(946753004365815878)
    await ctx.send(f'{emoji}')

The result was "None"

Your bot needs to be in the server you are trying to pull the emoji from. If it's a large server that you aren't the owner of or can't add your bot too, you can probably find the emoji online and add it to one of your own servers. From there, you can add your bot to that server and then use the emoji globally. Hope this helps!
