Understanding User Channel Deletion in Discord.js

In the world of Discord bots, one common issue that developers encounter is tracking user activities, especially when it comes to channel management. Specifically, you may need to know who deleted a channel within your server. Not only does this information help in maintaining order, but it also allows you to take appropriate actions when a user misuses their privileges.

The Challenge: Capturing User ID for Deleted Channels

When a channel is deleted, it can be frustrating if you want to figure out who is responsible for the deletion. The default event in the Discord.js library provides the necessary information to know that a channel has been deleted, but it does not specify which user executed the action. This is where the Discord Audit Logs come into play, which provides valuable insight into various actions performed in your server, including channel deletions.

The Solution: Utilizing Audit Logs to Fetch User ID

To effectively get the user ID of the individual who deleted a channel, you can fetch the audit logs associated with the channel deletion event. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how to implement this functionality in your Discord bot using Node.js and the Discord.js library.

Step 1: Setting Up the Event Listener

First, you need to set up an event listener for the channelDelete event. This will trigger each time a channel in your Discord server is deleted.
