Bot send message in specific channel

Question

I would like my bot to send a message to a specific channel notifying the user of the completion of the command. However, the channel that the command was executed in is deleted during the command and the message must be sent in a different channel.

I have tried message.channel.sendMessage but I do not know how to set which channel the message sends to.

The command !setup is executed in the default text channels of the guild. During the command, the default channels are deleted and a new channel "reception" is created. I would like the bot to send a message to "reception" to notify the user of the completion of the command.

To find a channel based on its name, you can use Collection.find() for the guild's channels (Guild.channels).

Example:

const receptionChannel = message.guild.channels.find(c => c.name === 'reception');

receptionChannel.send(`Hey ${message.author}, setup is complete.`)
  .catch(console.error);
