Returns: Invite

Returns a newly constructed cache of all invite objects for the channel. The cache and its objects are not automatically updated via gateway events. You must call this method again to get the updated objects.

Returns: Cache

Returns a permission overwrite object corresponding to the provided member or role object. If a cached overwrite is not found, an empty overwrite with zero-permissions is returned instead. Therefore, this can be used to create a new overwrite when one does not exist. Note that the member or role must exist in the same guild as the channel does.

Name	Type
obj	Role

Returns: PermissionOverwrite

Permanently deletes the channel. This cannot be undone!

The Snowflake ID that can be used to identify the object. This is guaranteed to be unique except in cases where an object shares the ID of its parent.

Type: string

The Unix time in seconds at which this object was created by Discord. Additional decimal points may be present, though only the first 3 (milliseconds) should be considered accurate.

Type: number

The date and time at which this object was created by Discord, represented as an ISO 8601 string plus microseconds when available.

Equivalent to Date.fromSnowflake(Snowflake.id):toISO().
