Create a channel with a reaction - Discord.py

I would like that when a member clicks on a certain reaction, the bot create a channel but it doesn't work :

My code :

@bot.event
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
    reaction = (u"\U0001F4E9")
    if reaction == reaction :
        channel = await payload.create_text_channel('Tickets', overwrites=None, reason=None)
        return channel

The Error :

AttributeError: 'RawReactionActionEvent' object has no attribute 'create_text_channel'

You can by getting the guild from guild_id

@bot.event
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
    if str(payload.emoji) == "📩":
        guild = bot.get_guild(payload.guild_id)
        channel = await guil.create_text_channel('Tickets')
        return channel

In this case, it's probably not needed to use a raw_reaction_add, instead you can just use a on_reaction_add event which would always wait for a user to react with your specified emoji

However, it's not like you can just pass ctx, so you have to use reaction as your argument, then the message channel. You can define the guild simply with reaction.message.guild.

Here's a simple example of using this, make sure to add other changes or checks eg. Checking if the reaction was in a specified guild or message id.

@client.event
async def on_reaction_add(reaction, user):
        if reaction.emoji == '📩':
            guild = reaction.message.guild
            await guild.create_text_channel('Tickets', overwrites=None, reason=None)
            await reaction.message.channel.send('Created a ticket!')

The error in your code is also explanatory, AttributeError: 'RawReactionActionEvent' object has no attribute 'create_text_channel simply means payload hasn't got an attribute for create_text_channel, however including message would allow this. Raw reaction add isn't needed in this case
