I’m still new to coding, so I couldn’t tell what was wrong with the above. Thanks in advance.

Hi

Please check your JSON in the request body with the Online Json editor: JSON Editor Online: JSON editor, JSON formatter, query JSON

most probably it will solve your issue.

I tried it, but I’m not quite sure what’s I’m looking for here:

Hi @Bruce1,

Try renaming rate_limit_per_user? to rate_limit_per_user and see if that fixes the issue.

Yes, I just change it, seems like it’s still not working and still getting the same error

[Runcorn]

Yeah, the Discord, API for me is weird, as it doesn’t have any working samples, However, It seems like a message is an object instead of a string and you need to pass these as part of the payload in the body,

{
	"name": "John Doe",
	"auto_archive_duration": 60,
	"rate_limit_per_user": 0,
	"message": {
		"content": "Hello, World!"
	}
}

oh, this totally works for me, thanks mate, seems like the thread making stuff need to have a complete message or something
