Discord.py get server name or id by server link

So i want a bot that can return the server name/id by the join link.

Like: https://discord.gg/WxwgCQzW

Will return: cryptoTribe

Better way

After some more digging, there's a better way to do this, using discord.Client.fetch_invite(), which returns a discord.Invite:

async def get_invite_name(link: str):
    # Assuming bot or client is a global variable
    invite = await bot.fetch_invite(link)
    return invite.guild.name    

Old way

You can perform a GET request to the invite endpoint:

GET https://discordapp.com/api/invite/WxwgCQzW

Then, with the JSON data:

guild_name = data["guild"]["name"]

Code

Using aiohttp:

import aiohttp
import json

DISCORD_API_LINK = "https://discordapp.com/api/invite/"


async def get_invite_name(link: str) -> str:
    # Get the invite code of the link by splitting the link and getting the last element
    invite_code = link.split("/")[-1]
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        async with session.get(DISCORD_API_LINK + invite_code) as response:
            data = await response.text()
            json_data = json.loads(data)
            return json_data["guild"]["name"]
