Discord.py create an invite link to join a voice channel

Question

I want my discord bot to create an invite link to join the voice channel that the person who called the command is in.

@client.command()
async def voiceinvite(ctx):
    if ctx.author.voice:
        await ctx.send(ctx.message.author.voice.create_invite(max_age=120, max_uses=10))
    else:
        await ctx.send("Join a voice channel")

I've tried this but there's an error about references.

Answer 1

First, you should include the error message you got so we can figure out what is wrong

But as for the question:

The problem here is that you're trying to call create_invite() on a VoiceState object. You need to call it on a VoiceChannel object as documented in the docs.

The solution would be:

@client.command()
async def voiceinvite(ctx):
    channel = ctx.author.voice.channel
    if channel:
        invite = channel.create_invite(max_age=120, max_uses=10)
        await ctx.send(invite)
    else:
        await ctx.send("Join a voice channel")

Next time, Please include the error when there is one. It helps people answer questions as errors have information about the problem and sometimes even the solution itself!
