Multiple Reactions and Send_Message_Object Endpoints

Forgive me if this was already suggested but I couldn't find it while searching for it.

The API doesn't have an endpoint for adding multiple reactions at once. However, there is an endpoint for deleting multiple reactions. I believe that this was probably not implemented to rate limit the selfbots from bombarding the message with a huge list of reactions. But when it comes to a normal bot that clearly follows the Discord ToS and the ratelimits, they should be allowed to add multiple reactions at once. This doesn't let the users see the bot adding the reactions and makes it visually more appealing.

To further enhance this, there could be a Channel Endpoint which accepts a prepared Message Object as the form-data. In this case, I can prepare my message with a set of reactions and send it to the endpoint in one go.

This will be far more visually appealing (and probably performance efficient too) than sending a message and then adding a reaction to it one by one.
We will reducing the number of requests from (N + 1) to 1, where N is the number of reactions.

Kindly consider this suggestion and if it isn't possible to implement this for any reason, please let me know.

    Great suggestion. I'm using reactions for interactive messages, where the message will be updated when certain reactions are used. The bot creates the message and then adds the available reactions one by one, which takes a second or so per emoji. It's frustrating to wait for them to appear one by one.

    I use reactions as the primary way in which users interact with my bot, and the biggest complaint I have from users right now is how slow it takes for the 6 possible reaction responses to appear on messages.

    I agree. Forcing the user to wait seconds on end to interact with a bot sucks; Even more so when this is the most user-friendly approach.

    It's been two years, so many people are wishing for it but it's still not implemented lol...

    To Fix Discord Awaiting Endpoint Error I would suggest you Change Your Server Region, Check your Wi-Fi Settings or Reinstall Discord. These fixes will definitely work for you.
