Description

Is there a specific app this action is for?

Discord

Please provide a link to the relevant API docs for the specific service / operation.

Discord API - Edit Message

Additionally - to retrieve the ID of a message sent by the Discord - Send Advanced Message, you'll need the message_id returned in the response.

Currently the ID is not returned, so you don't have a way of referencing messages sent to Discord:

Research direction
Examine the existing Discord send action component (likely in components/discord/send message) to understand how it returns the response and how to add the message id to its output. Then create a new action for editing messages using the Discord Edit Message API endpoint (https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#edit message). Check issue comments and any linked PRs for additional context or guidance from maintainers.
