I am trying to code a discord bot but when I run the program it gives the error

Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:/Users/phara/Documents/GitHub/RayzeBot/bot.py", line 41, in intents = discord.Intents.default() AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Intents'

import discord, asyncio, os, platform, sys
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
from discord.ext import commands
import time
import random
if not os.path.isfile("config.py"):
    sys.exit("'config.py' not found! Please add it and try again.")
else:
    import config

Privileged Intents (Needs to be enabled on dev page):
intents.presences = True
intents.members = True

intents = discord.Intents.default()

I have the latest version of the discord API installed and am running python 3.8 What is causing the error and how do I fix it?

  • Have you enabled privileged intents as this answer suggests? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64831017/how-do-i-get-the-discord-py-intents-to-work – AS11 Apr 03 '21 at 03:54

Seems like a discord version issue. Intents was introduced in discord.py 1.5.0

import discord
print(discord.__version__)

This should be less than 1.5 in your pc.

Updating discord

pip install --upgrade discord.py

Or if you want to install a specific version

pip install discord.py==1.5.0

  • Thanks upgrading helped but vscode continues to use 1.3.2 although I have installed 1.6.0 (I checked in cmd). Is their a way to fix this issue? – Ucef Apr 03 '21 at 15:04
  • Just fixed the issue had to use python version 3.9 instead of 3.8. – Ucef Apr 03 '21 at 15:11
  • Use [this](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/environments#:~:text=To%20do%20so%2C%20open%20the,Settings%2C%20with%20the%20appropriate%20interpreter.) To change python version in vscode – Ceres Apr 03 '21 at 16:16

I just ran your code and it works on my pc. I'm using Python 3.6 but I don't think that should be an issue. Maybe try reinstalling discord API?

There are two cases here.

  1. The most obvious problem is that discord does not contain "intents" it contains "Intents". So all you need to do is change the i to a capital I.
  2. The second possible problem could be an older version of Intent release. To confirm your version do as the other answer mentioned in a new file and run that file.

  • [Welcome to StackOverflow.](/tour) Please see [answer]. `discord.py` does contain `Intents`. The OP's code has `Intents` and not `intents`. If you are referring to the variable `intents`: Python variables can be named in any way, regardless of the commonly used discord.py variable names. Even then, I don't think people use `Intents = ` over `intents = `. Learn the basics of Python before answering a Python question. Please re-read your answer before posting. If the question is already answered, avoid adding another answer with the same content. – The Amateur Coder Feb 21 '23 at 17:51
