Syntax

$randomChannelID

Note: This function takes no arguments (it is an error to pass any).

Return Value

The Discord ID (snowflake) of a random channel, as a string, or an empty string if no channel is returned.

Behavior

• The candidates are all the channels returned by Discord for the server, whatever their type: text, voice, categories, and so on. Active threads are not included.
• It needs the Discord channel service of the running bot and a server context.

Examples

Get a random channel ID

Random channel ID: $randomChannelID

Mention a random channel

Random channel: <#$randomChannelID>

Notes

• Because voice channels and categories can be picked, the result is not always a channel you can send messages to.
