Adding multiple reactions to a message discord.py

Question

So the code show below is meant to send an embeded message to the discord channel the command was sent in. Once there it is to add emojis of the number 1 to 3 as reactions.

    # Start
    @client.command()
    async def start(self, ctx):
        # Main Message
        em = discord.Embed(title="Welcome to the Escape Room Test")
        em.add_field(name="To Continue React to the 1.", value="Ignore this", inline=False)
        message = await ctx.channel.send(embed=em)
        # Add Reactions
        number_of_responses = 3
        for counter in range(number_of_responses):
            await message.add_reaction(emoji_numbers[counter])
    # End Start

emoji_numbers = ["1️⃣", "2️⃣", "3️⃣", "4️⃣", "5️⃣", "6️⃣", "7️⃣", "8️⃣", "9️⃣"]

However after adding the first emoji I get this error and havent been able to find a way to get past it. Any suggestions would be amazing. Thanks.

Perhaps try making the for loop for adding reactions an async for loop? async for counter in range(number_of_resonses): — plum 0
Sadly the Async doesnt work and I have a main file that will run the bot. — Skye

That code worked, but I edited it little bit.

Your code:

@client.command()
async def start(self, ctx):
    # Main Message
    em = discord.Embed(title="Welcome to the Escape Room Test")
    em.add_field(name="To Continue React to the 1.", value="Ignore this", inline=False)
    # Add Reactions
    number_of_responses = 3
    emoji_numbers = ["1️⃣", "2️⃣", "3️⃣", "4️⃣", "5️⃣", "6️⃣", "7️⃣", "8️⃣", "9️⃣"]

    message = await ctx.send(embed=em)
    for i in range(number_of_responses):
        await message.add_reaction(emoji_numbers[i])
