Likewise with the start command, you can edit any part of the giveaway via the appropirate parameter. The most important part is the Giveaway ID, which can be found in the footer of the giveaway embed! You don't have to fill all of them, they are all option so only set a parameter for what you want to edit!
You can get the Giveaway ID from the footer of the giveaway embed!
