Telegram bot doesn't recieve messages from a channel - telegram-bot

Private settings are turned off.
the bot is added to the channel and he is an admin.
i created another channel because maybe the other one had problems but it didn't helped too.
And it still can't see the messages i send in the channel , why?
(i tested it and he gets the messages everywhere except of channels)

consider that channel_post is a different update parameter than regular message parameter which is only for private chats and groups.

How to send message as a channel telethon

Is this even possible using telethon?
I want to use the send message as channel in public groups option using telethon.
I couldn't find anything about it anywhere
Seems like there is this send_as attribute in send_message for the master branch of Telethon and it's not released yet.

depth of channel showing in nsqadmin increasing fast when producer send message to same topic via different nsqd

I play with nsqd a little bit and met the prob mentioned in the title. But when I send message via single nsqd, there is no such prob. Does this mean message should always be sent via same nsqd?
Here is my project. https://github.com/hoozecn/nsqd-cluster
It's resolved by set a higher MaxInFlight value.

Telegram Bot - Send Info message

currently I am working to creating telegram bot. Now I required to know is there is any API to send info messages (like the one we get during a user is added r deleted in a group chat)
Thanks in advance
What you want to do can be done using answerCallbackQuery method.
But first of all you have to create a CallbackQuery using InlineKeyboardMarkup to create inline keyboards you can follow the steps in this link.
After creating the callback query you have to answer it using one of the codes below:
if (update.CallbackQuery.Data == "CQ1")
{
await Bot.AnswerCallbackQueryAsync(update.CallbackQuery.Id,"Text",true,null, 0);
}
This way the message will look like a message box and will disappear after the user taps on OK. But if you use the code below, the message will show up and disappear automatically after a few seconds.
else if (update.CallbackQuery.Data == "CQ2")
{
await Bot.AnswerCallbackQueryAsync(update.CallbackQuery.Id, "Text", false,null, 30);
}
By the way, messages that are shown at times like adding a user to a
group are service messages and theses kinds of message can only be
sent by telegram server.
If my suggestion does not fix your issue you can use pinMessage method
that sticks a single message to the top of the page in groups and
channels. But note that you can only pin one message to a channel
or group and for pinning another message firstly you should unpin the
previous one.
Currently there is no way to send such info messages.
And in my opinion, this feature is unlikely to be added in future because:
info messages usually tell you information about your chat; they are managed by telegram servers
therefore they should not be sent by Users
bot is an instance of User

Is it possible to read bot Telegram messages

I have successfully created a bot with and am able to fetch messages from a chat using the getupdates method (long polling).
The getUpdates method is only showing user posted messages (clientside). When I post messages directly using the sendmessage method (serverside) these messages do appear in the chat, but do not in the getUpdates log.
This page https://github.com/LibreLabUCM/teleg-api-bot/wiki/Getting-started-with-the-Telegram-Bot-API#getupdates
states it logs only when "An user messages your bot, either directly or in a group." and some other ways, but the sendMessage way is not mentioned.
I've read a bit on the setwebhook method (push) but am not sure this will fix my issue.
Is this possible?
According to Bot FAQ, bots will not be able to see messages from other bots regardless of mode.
The getUpdates method shows only updates from users, not from the bot itself. This means that when you fetch the new messages with the getUpdates method, the Telegram API will list only the messages sent by the users, not the messages sent by the bot via any method (e.g sendMessage, sendPhoto ...).
To get old messages you can store the entire update (or only the parts of the update you need) for each message (even those sent by the bot with the sendMessage method) in a file or in a database and when you need an old message you can simply fetch it form the database or the files.
I managed to get the bot messages using two bots.
One does the sendMessage method and the other one does the getUpdates method.
#Giolacca9 answer inspired me to try this workaround and it works, "not from the bot itself" :)

Re-getting POP3 messages

I am using Peter Huber's POP3 client to connect to gmail and download messages.
The inboxes being accessed are transactional inboxes used only for code-access. That is, a message comes in with a order file attached, code will process it and then delete the message. One stipulation of the code though was a DEBUG flag, which if set would prevent the code from deleting the message so that you can run the program again later without the debug flag and reprocess the message. So, in my code I have
If Not Arguments.Debug Then pop.DeleteEmail(eid)
This works fine. Problem is, even when not deleting the message, running the program a second time will not re-retrieve the message, even though if I login to gmail and look at the inbox, it is still there. The only way I can get the program to see the message again is to forward the message back to the same inbox. But in Peter's code I do not see anywhere where he is keeping track of seen messages between sessions.
Is this something that is done on gmail's end? Refusing to deliver a message to the same client a second time? If so, is there any way I can change my gmail account so that it will always show all messages in the inbox to a client when retrieving the list of messages, even ones already "seen"? I don't see anything in the gmail settings screen.
UPDATE: I tried adding a method to send a RSET command to the server, as per this comment on the codeproject page. I then call my new Reset() method after retrieving my messages but before disconnecting, ... but I still have the same problem.
Okay... found a "sort of" answer after reading through pages of the comments on the codeproject project.
According to this comment, the RSET command does not actually do anything when you are dealing with gmail's servers.
The "answer" is to prepend your username with the string "recent:", so instead of logging in with [myaccount#gmail.com] you log in with [recent:myaccount#gmail.com]. Rather hackish, ... but it works.
