Get this every time I try to use the selfbot:

What's the issue with my configs? I did not use the automatic configuration.

The issue is actually with my example configs, I apologize for that. The issue can be seen from this commit
4a69459

One of the first things you will see in that commit is me changing all ID-based things (e.g channel IDs, user IDs) from strings to integers.

In your configs, or rather the configs I forgot to update, the IDs are being stored as strings and need to be stored as integers.

Shared.yaml

token: 123456789123456789
owners: ['123456789123456789']
logging: true
prefix: "%%"

Will become:

token: 123456789123456789
owners: [123456789123456789]
logging: true
prefix: "%%"

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I am going to push an update soon fixing the example configs. Looking back, this has actually been an issue since November 2018 (e4763bf) when I updated discord.py. In the older versions, discord.py accepted IDs as strings.

I apologize for this error. I would have encountered this myself but I actually store my config files elsewhere (because they contain my token and other information) and so the example config files don't get tested.

Awesome! DAB works amazingly after these fixes. Thank you.
