Send A Request When Guild Adds Slash Application

[Skillz4Killz]

Description

Hello 👋

I am hoping to request the addition of a new request to be sent whenever a guild/server adds the slash application(non-bot).

Why This is Needed

I was looking to somehow determine when the application is invited, so I could register all the guild-specific commands for them because at first these would not exist.

Alternatives Considered

• /register global command to enable guild commands. However, i feel thats a bit worse UX than automatically registering once its added.
• Use OAuth redirect url to trigger it using the guild id provided. However, this makes it problematic as i still then need to handle the edge cases when someone does not use the redirect url. Security issues arise with making this url public as well.

Additional Details

A guild delete/removed request would also be useful to remove things from the database when they no longer use it for user privacy.

Does Application Command Create not do this already? 🤔

That event does not go out to bots, and definitely would not go to HTTP only bots

They were talking about when it only has the applicaiton.commands scope authorized, you don't know it was added to a guild until a command is used with it. Though I'm not sure what the point of registering guild specific commands when it is added. It sounds like you can just use global commands.

Global commands are limiting and guild commands provide more useful utilities to your commands so I really do need guild commands and can't use global

Global commands are limiting

What limitations do they have besides the 1 hour cache? (which is not an issue if you're joining a new guild)

I think this is a dupe of (part of) #3341

Is it? I don't see anything in that issue that would suggest what I am needing

I'd suggest reading that discussion again, I forgot myself that it is mostly talking about this exact problem.
