Direct Message

Sending Direct Messages:

The method direct.send() is used to send a direct message to a specific user. It requires two parameters: the user ID of the recipient and the message to be sent.


// Assuming you have defined the Highrise instance as "bot".
bot.on("messageCreate", (user_id, data, message) => {
  if (message === "hello") {
    bot.direct.send(data.id, "Hello, world!").catch(e => console.error(e));
  }
});

Note: In order to receive messages, AutoFetchMessages should be enabled in the Highrise configuration. Here's an example of how to enable AutoFetchMessages :


const bot = new Highrise({
  Events: [
    Events.DirectMessages // Listen for direct messages.
  ],
  AutoFetchMessages: true, // Fetches messages on direct message events.
});
