Setting a random color embed | Discord.js – Javascript

I’m trying to set a random color with Discord.js but it keeps throwing me errors. I have tried serveral methods on other posts as well, but it couldn’t fix the problem

The code:

const Command = require("../structures/Command.js");
const config = require("../data/config.json");
const {MessageEmbed} = require('discord.js')

module.exports = new Command({
    name: "artlumen",
    description: "idk",

    async run(message, args, client) {
        const artlumen = new MessageEmbed()
                .setColor("RANDOM")
                .setTitle("Elite 0")
                .setImage('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Aceship/Arknight-Images/main/characters/char_4042_lumen_1.png')
                .setTimestamp()
message.channel.send({ embeds: [artlumen] });
    }
});

The error

TypeError [COLOR_CONVERT]: Unable to convert color to a number.

}

I also tried to use it with a randomizer function, didn’t work also

const Command = require("../structures/Command.js");
const config = require("../data/config.json");
const {MessageEmbed} = require('discord.js')

module.exports = new Command({
    name: "artlumen",
    description: "idk",

    async run(message, args, client) {
        const artlumen = new MessageEmbed()
                .setColor(ranc())
                .setTitle("Elite 0")
                .setImage('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Aceship/Arknight-Images/main/characters/char_4042_lumen_1.png')
                .setTimestamp()
message.channel.send({ embeds: [artlumen] });
    }
});


function ranc() {
    var col = ["#000000", "#1ABC9C", "#11806A", "#57F287", "#1F8B4C", "#3498DB", "#206694", "#9B59B6", "#71368A", "#E91E63", "#AD1457", "#F1C40F", "#C27C0E", "#E67E22", "#A84300", "#ED4245", "#992D22", "#95A5A6", "#979C9F", "#7F8C8D", "#BCC0C0", "#34495E", "#2C3E50", "#FFFF00"]
    var rnd = Math.floor(Math.random() * col.length);
    return(col[rnd])
}

    Create function which generate random color and return it or do .setColor('Random')

    function getHex() {
  return '#' + Math.floor(Math.random() * 0xFFFFFF).toString(16).padEnd(6, '0');
}

    and for set color do
    .setColor(getHex())

    Maybe try using the EmbedBuilder (https://discordjs.guide/popular-topics/embeds.html). I tested your ranc function and it returns a random color, so the ranc function is prolly not the problem.

    const embed = new Discord.EmbedBuilder()
.setColor("#37AADF");
interaction.reply("Test Embed");
interaction.channel.send({embeds: });

    ^This code above works fine

    So try the EmbedBuilder
