NodeJS discord-rpc application not found

I am trying to setup Discord RPC. For it, I registered a new application and copied the client ID. Then I am using this code:

const RPC = require("discord-rpc");
const discordClient = new RPC.Client({ transport: "ipc" });

let defaultActivity;

(async () => {
    discordClient.on("ready", async () => {
    console.log('Authed for user', discordClient.user);
    console.log(discordClient.application.name);
    console.log(discordClient.user.username);

    defaultActivity = {
        details: `${discordClient.user.username}`,
        state: "Test",
        largeImageKey: "test",
        largeImageText: "Kirka Client",
        smallImageText: `${discordClient.user.username}#${discordClient.user.discriminator}`,
    }

    discordClient.setActivity(defaultActivity);
    });
await discordClient.login({clientId: "871730144836976650"}).catch(console.error)
})();

But this gives me the following error:

Authed for user { id: '771601176155783198',
username: 'AwesomeSam',
discriminator: '7985',
avatar: '93d3fd4fb9fd0921830d69e07a248036',

Well, it is as it says.

Cannot read property 'name' of null

It seems that the property "discordClient.application" in line 9 is null, so it could not read a "name" value of null.
I'm not into discord-rpc, I do prefer discord.js, so I can't come up with a solution for this.
You should try debugging it with console.log(discordClient)
