I am trying to listen for incoming messages in a private discord channel for discord.js v13.8, the client is not receiving any message data back for private channels. All the solutions on SO for this issue are for discord.py. This is my code.

client.on("messageCreate", async (msg) => {
    const title = "Parking Lot Bot"
    const desc = "Checking for parking spaces...."
    const startEmbed = fc.setStartEmbed(title, desc, "parking")
    let channel = client.channels.fetch("984498609775075359")
    .then(channel =>{
        channel.send({ embeds: [startEmbed]})
    })
    .catch(console.error);
});
