Sending message every minute in discord.py

Question

I am trying to make the bot send a message every minute in discord.py. I do acknowledge that this is a easy thing to do but I have tried multiple times but resulting with no luc

Answer 1

You try to get channel with get_channel(), but your bot is not ready yet. So you get NoneType object, not channel. Try to this solution:

@tasks.loop(minutes=1)
async def test():
    channel = client.get_channel(CHANNEL_ID)
    await channel.send("test")

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    test.start()
