    • Method Detail

      • getPosition

        int getPosition()
        The hierarchical position of this Role in the Guild hierarchy. (higher value means higher role).
        The Guild.getPublicRole()'s getPosition() always return -1.
        Returns:
        The position of this Role as integer.

      • getPositionRaw

        int getPositionRaw()
        The actual position of the Role as stored and given by Discord.
        Role positions are actually based on a pairing of the creation time (as stored in the snowflake id) and the position. If 2 or more roles share the same position then they are sorted based on their creation date.
        The more recent a role was created, the lower it is in the hierarchy. This is handled by getPosition() and it is most likely the method you want. If, for some reason, you want the actual position of the Role then this method will give you that value.
        Returns:
        The true, Discord stored, position of the Role.
