How to resolve the following error in discord.py: "TypeError __init__() missing 1 required keyw

Time:04-25

I'm using Heroku as my server host of my Discord.py bot, but i am having a problem. the problem is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "test.py", line 4, in <module>
        client = discord.Client()
TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'intents'
Process exited with status 1

However here is my discord.py code

import discord
token = '(Obviously the token is here)'

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix)

bot.run(token)

How to change the code:

  1. Head over to the Discord Developer Portal and click on your application
  2. Head over to Botand find Privileged Gateway Intents. Tick whatever you need
  3. In your code, you then need to import them:
intents = discord.Intents.default() # or .all() if you ticked all, that is easier
intents.members = True # If you ticked the SERVER MEMBERS INTENT

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=".", intents=intents) # "Import" the intents

This should resolve your error.
