Channel info
A channel's name, topic, type, slowmode and who is in it.
channel.info
In a flow
“Works out channel info whenever a step wired to it needs the answer.”
"{node.c.in_voice} people are in {node.c.mention}".
What it does
A channel's name, topic, type, slowmode and who is in it. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 11 values later steps can use. Find it under Channels in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow works with channels: A channel's name, topic, type, slowmode and who is in it.
When not to
For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
Typical wiring
Sockets: settings you can wire
- Channel Channel
-
The channel to read. Leave empty for here: where this happened, or the new place in an "In the new …" branch.
What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in a channel. e.g. #general
If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.
