This error "DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions" does not stop

Question

I have a problem, and that is that every moment I get this error: DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions and I don't know where it comes from or why

Answer 1

I'm not sure if anyone will still run into this issue but if you do. It could be a problem with your BOT being a lower level than the user or whatever your trying to do. For example most people have the Owner role on the top right? right. Well if you're trying to do something to a user above your bot like if the role BOT is under MEMBER and you try Banning MEMBER with BOT it won't work. Hope this helps

Answer 2

In 2021 this error can be fixed, if you are trying to let's say for example to create a ban all command for your discord bot, YOU HAVE TO DO THIS BEFORE GIVING UP ON IT. First go to https://discord.com/developers/applications and click on your bot's account then go to the option bot(the location were you get the bot token) then turn on those options:

EASY DIRECTIONS: Discord Developer Portal>(Click on your bot's account)>Bot(the place were you are getting the token from)>Privileged Gateway Intents>PRESENCE INTENT(TURN IT ON IF IT'S OFF)>SERVER MEMBERS INTENT(IT'S LOCATED IN THE SAME PAGE, TURN IT ON IF IT'S OFF) Those are the main thing that you have to do and then you can start to make your command!
