Delete Embed Upon Certain Reaction

I am trying to have an embed get deleted once a user reacts 🚮

//msg = embed

message.channel.send(msg).then(msg => {

  msg.react('👍')
  msg.react('👎')
  msg.react('🚮')

  const trashFilter = reaction => {
    return ['🚮'].includes(reaction.emoji.name)
  }

  msg.awaitReactions(trashFilter, { max: 1, time: 2592000, errors: ['time'] }).then((collected, msg) => {

    const reaction = collected

    if (reaction === '🚮') {
      msg.delete({ timeout: 100 })
    }

  })


})

This does not successfully delete the message. Any better methods to do this?

Your issue is caused by the msg parameter you passed within awaitReactions()'s then() since msg.delete() does not refer to the original msg and also awaitReactions() does not return a message, just a collection of messageReactions so you only need to pass collected

message.channel.send(msg).then(msg => {

  msg.react('👍')
  msg.react('👎')
  msg.react('🚮')

  const trashFilter = reaction => {
    return ['🚮'].includes(reaction.emoji.name)
  }

  msg.awaitReactions(trashFilter, { max: 1, time: 2592000, errors: ['time'] }).then((collected) => {

    const reaction = collected

    if (reaction === '🚮') {
      msg.delete({ timeout: 100 })
    }

  })
})
