My chat GUI wont use the chat filtered message?

--Made by Jeysea
local event = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage'):WaitForChild('Chatted')
local TextService = game:GetService('TextService')
event.OnServerEvent:connect(function(player, nameColor, message, messageColor)
local TextService = game:GetService("TextService")
local filteredTextResult = TextService:FilterStringAsync(player, player.Id)
	
  local filteredText = ""
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
	filteredTextResult = TextService:FilterStringAsync(message, player.Id)
end)
if not success then

	-- Put code here to handle filter failure
end
event:FireAllClients(player, nameColor, message, messageColor)
end)

How do I fix this code? This is getting me on confusion and I really can't find a way to fix this...

✓ Accepted answer

You have yourself a couple of issues 1. Id is not a valid property of the player, try UserId 2. You're just sending the regular message, you're not even attempting to send the filtered message.

Give this a shot. Read over it and look at what i've done... Try to learn from this.

if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

local event = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage'):WaitForChild('Chatted')
local TextService = game:GetService('TextService')

local function filterMessage(player,message,sendAnyways)
	local success, result = pcall(TextService.FilterStringAsync, TextService, message, player.UserId)
	if success then
		 local filteredMessage = result:GetNonChatStringForBroadcastAsync()
		if string.sub(filteredMessage,1,1) == '#' and sendAnyways == false then
			return false,'Message got filtered'
		end
		return true,nil, filteredMessage
	else
		-- error
	end
end

event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, nameColor,message, messageColor)
	local success,errorMessage,filteredMessage = filterMessage(player,message,false) -- Set to true if you want the message to send if it filters ####### (Basically it'll send Pound signs')
	if success then
		event:FireAllClients(player,nameColor,filteredMessage,messageColor)
	else
		print('Filtered issue was:',errorMessage,'  So message was NOT sent')
	end
end)
