[KingKayhan]

when i run this code

import discord
import os

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print('We have logged in as {0.user}  '.format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.author == client.user:
    return

  if message.content.startswith('mango hello'):
    await message.channel.send('Hello!')

client.run(os.getenv(''))

i get this error message

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "main.py", line 18, in <module>
    client.run(os.getenv('ODQ2NzU0OTgzMzc3MzcxMjI4.YK0IBw.BFsCEE_RY22U9LdTDo1Nwrgh2kY'))

    await self.http.static_login(token.strip(), bot=bot)

I’ve edited your post for readability. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) to add backticks around text.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (’).

HI @KingKayhan !

It shouldn’t be an empty string here

@KingKayhan

getenv(''))

You should use the Token

client.run(os.getenv('TOKEN'))

Also you will need to make sure to create the env file properly

You can’t do it the way the video does because replit changed the way you create env files.

You have to use the secrets tab to enter your token.
