I have a discord bot and I would like to know how I can make the bot use animated emoticons on the server. I have tried other bots that put animated emoticons through WebHooks or put the bot itself to put animated emoticons. But I can't get it to work in any way. If anyone can help me thanks. KKtua

I presume you already have a framework in place - your bot starts up, runs basic commands etc. Do include some code samples of what you have tried. – Cloud

First of all the bot needs to be in the server where the animated emoji is, so if you want to use an emoji from the 'Rocket League' server, then the bot has to be in that server.

Once you know the bot is in the server which has the emoji, what you need to do is type the emoji in chat yourself with a \ before the emoji, so that you get the emoji ID, which you will need to copy and use in the bot code, example of an animated emoji used in a bot message:

message.reply('here is a cool emoji -> <a:check_no:717523612906684428> ');
