Cannot figure out how to apply permissions to commands

[Yorashoo]

This is the code from the discordjs.guide, but I just can't get this to work. I've spent about 4 hours messing around with it but I'm just not sure:

a) how to get a command's ID
b) how to apply "permissions" to a command
c) how to in general use this approach

I'm following the command structure created here (https://discordjs.guide/creating-your-bot/command-handling.html#reading-command-files).

Here's what my main.js looks like: https://pastebin.com/rz6BRs5R

Help would be greatly appreciated, thank you! (also, is there a discord or something I can join? I haven't been able to find one)

a) how to get a command's ID

await guild.commands.fetch()

to fetch all the commands, afterwards you can use find to find the command via it's name
and now you have a singular specific command available to you
now just accessing command.id would give you the id
to apply that entirely it would be

const myKickCommandID = (await guild.commands.fetch()).find(command => command.name === "kick")?.id

b) how to apply "permissions" to a command

after you've gotten a singular command, it's exactly like the guide, you call .permissions.add to it read the docs for more information on this

c) how to in general use this approach

this requires you to already have commands registered and you run this code once to add the permissions, maybe on the ready event and then after setting the permissions you can remove it right after.
