I send messages form Excel to telegram. It works nice.
But how can I send a photo? I don't understand it (https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#sendphoto)
Thanks for help!
My send Message:
Dim objRequest As Object
Dim strChatId As String
Dim strMessage As String
Dim strPostData As String
Dim strResponse As String
strChatId = Worksheets("Einstellungen").Cells(3, "AB")
strMessage = Report
APIcode = Worksheets("Einstellungen").Cells(2, "AB")
strPostData = "chat_id=" & strChatId & "&text=" & strMessage
Set objRequest = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
With objRequest
.Open "POST", "https://api.telegram.org/" & APIcode & "/sendMessage?", False
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
.send (strPostData)
GetSessionId = .responseText
End With
If your code is working as-is for plain text messages then you should only need to make a couple changes to it.
You're probably currently using the API's sendMessage method, which takes the chat_id and text parameters.
You want to use the sendPhoto method, which tales the chat_id and photo parameters (but no text parameter).
So this is a bit of a shot in the dark since I've never used or heard of Telegram and I don't have a key, so I can't test it, but theoretically, you could send a photo from a URL like this:
Sub telegram_SendPhoto()
Const photoURL = "https://i.imgur.com/0eH6d1v.gif" 'URL of photo
Dim objRequest As Object, strChatId As String, APIcode As String
Dim strPostData As String, strResponse As String
strChatId = Worksheets("Einstellungen").Cells(3, "AB")
APIcode = Worksheets("Einstellungen").Cells(2, "AB")
strPostData = "chat_id=" & strChatId & "&photo=" & photoURL
Set objRequest = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
With objRequest
.Open "POST", "https://api.telegram.org/" & APIcode & "/sendPhoto?", False
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
.send (strPostData)
strResponse = .responseText
End With
MsgBox strResponse
End Sub
Pass a file_id as String to send a photo that exists on the Telegram servers (recommended), pass an HTTP URL as a String for Telegram to get a photo from the Internet (above), or upload a new photo using multipart/form-data. More info on Sending Files »

When i wrote a http get request in vba to get the session id , instead of getting the session id , i am getting an HTML code in the immediate window?
Why is this so?
So basically , when you open the link on browser it will first ask the user to enter his username and password , then it will show him the session id.
But when i select the link in vba code , it shows me the html code
Sub Button1_Click()
Dim objRequest As Object
Dim strUrl As String
Dim blnAsync As Boolean
Dim strResponse As String
Set objRequest = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
strUrl = "url to be entered"
blnAsync = True
With objRequest
.Open "GET", strUrl, blnAsync
.SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/json"
.Send
'spin wheels whilst waiting for response
While objRequest.readyState <> 4
DoEvents
Wend
strResponse = .ResponseText
End With
Debug.Print strResponse
End Sub
I'm trying to build a VBA function that will update a value in a Sharepoint list:
Sub testUpdate()
Dim XmlHttp As MSXML2.XMLHTTP60
Dim result As String
Dim url As String
Dim body As String
Dim RequestDigest As String
Set XmlHttp = New MSXML2.XMLHTTP60
url = "https://sps.utility.xyz.com/sites/xyz/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('REST Test List')/items(1)"
RequestDigest = GetDigest("https://sps.utility.xyz.com/sites/xyz")
body = "{ '__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.Data.REST_x0020_Test_x0020_ListListItem' }, 'Title': 'updating item with new title'}"
XmlHttp.Open "POST", url, False
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader "IF-MATCH", "*"
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader "accept", "application/json;odata=verbose"
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader "content-type", "application/json;odata=verbose"
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader "X-Http-Method", "MERGE"
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader "X-RequestDigest", RequestDigest
XmlHttp.setRequestHeader "Content-Length", Len(body)
XmlHttp.Send body
result = XmlHttp.responseText
End Sub
Function GetDigest(url As String)
Dim oHttp As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP60
Dim s As String
Dim l1 As Long
Dim l2 As Long
With oHttp
.Open "POST", url + "/_api/contextinfo", False
.setRequestHeader "content-type", "application/json;odata=verbose"
.Send ""
End With
s = oHttp.responseText
l1 = InStr(1, s, "FormDigestValue")
If l1 > 10 Then
l1 = l1 + 16
l2 = InStr(l1, s, "</d:FormDigestValue")
End If
If l2 > 10 Then GetDigest = Mid$(s, l1, l2 - l1)
Set oHttp = Nothing
End Function
But when testUpdate gets to the line:
XmlHttp.Send body
it throws this error:
Run-time error '-2147467260 (80004004)':
Operation aborted
Despite the error, the update succeeds--the list item's Title value changes.
Is it safe for me to simply handle this exception and bypass the error, or is it indicating that there is a real problem that I need to resolve?
The api call requires authentication. I managed to use WinHTTP to authenticate the request based on the current user, I am assuming that they have access in the below. I get a 204 response and my list item updates correctly. (the iteration is because I was testing performance and can be removed).
Tools>references>Microsoft WinHttp Services Version 5.1
Private Sub UpdateItem2(ID, strFormDigest As String, iteration)
Dim sUrl As String
sUrl ="https://123.Sharepoint.net/sites/123/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('MyDemoList')/items(" & ID & ")"
Dim oRequest As WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
Dim sResult As String
sEnv = "{ '__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.Data.MyDemoListListItem' }, 'Title': 'TEST" & iteration & "' }"
Set oRequest = New WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
With oRequest
.Open "POST", sUrl, True
.setRequestHeader "IF-MATCH", "*"
.setRequestHeader "X-HTTP-Method", "MERGE"
.setRequestHeader "accept", "application/json;odata=verbose"
.setRequestHeader "X-RequestDigest", strFormDigest
.setRequestHeader "content-type", "application/json;odata=verbose"
.SetAutoLogonPolicy AutoLogonPolicy_Always
.send sEnv
.waitForResponse
End With
End Sub
I want to click on the following link
I have the class name and the line code I was trying ot use is the following:
objIE.document.getElementByClassName("msDataText searchLink").Click
This may well be a very basic question.. any guidance
Thanks a lot
Not sure if it is a duplicate question.
A good function GetHTTPResult is already available from the link. You need to just pass the url for the GET request to fetch the data. For POST request (this function will not work), you need to make a POST request with postdata.
Also there is a sample for XMLHttpRequest at link
Function GetHTTPResult(sURL As String) As String
Dim XMLHTTP As Variant, sResult As String
Set XMLHTTP = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")
XMLHTTP.Open "GET", sURL, False
XMLHTTP.Send
Debug.Print "Status: " & XMLHTTP.Status & " - " & XMLHTTP.StatusText
sResult = XMLHTTP.ResponseText
Debug.Print "Length of response: " & Len(sResult)
Set XMLHTTP = Nothing
GetHTTPResult = sResult
End Function
Hi I'm calling an API and using the winhttp request and the GET method. I'm passing a json style parameter in the send method but it just can't get accepted. I end up with the error message:
{"code":"INS03","description":"Event ID required","requestId":"_181603230829162847306080","data":{},"validationErrors":null}
Which seems weird because I am indeed passing the event id parameter, as follows:
inventory_URL = "https://api.stubhub.com/search/inventory/v1"
Dim oRequest As WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
Dim sResult As String
Set oRequest = New WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
With oRequest
.Open "GET", inventory_URL, True
.setRequestHeader "Authorization", "Bearer " & access_token
.setRequestHeader "Accept", "application/json"
.setRequestHeader "Accept-Encoding", "application/json"
.send ("{""eventid"":""9445148""}")
.waitForResponse
sResult = .responseText
Debug.Print sResult
sResult = oRequest.Status
Debug.Print sResult
End With
Is there any issue with my code?
Thank you in advance,
Vadim
For GET request query string should be composed.
Your data can't be passed in Send but in query string:
.Open "GET", inventory_URL & "?eventid=9445148", True
Check GET vs POST.
first time posting,
I'm trying to get the ID "dadosDoUsuario" from a website's page I have to be logged in. I got it working using "InternetExplorer.Application" object, but can't get the ID value when using "MSXML2.XMLHTTP" object. It seems it won't go past the login page, since I'm able to get other IDs from this page (example: "tituloPagina"). Could someone give a hint on how I get the data from the page after logged in? Thanks!
InternetExplorer.Application code (this one works):
Sub testIE()
Dim texto As String
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
my_url = "https://www.nfp.fazenda.sp.gov.br/login.aspx"
With ie
.Visible = False
.Navigate my_url
Do Until Not ie.Busy And ie.readyState = 4
DoEvents
Loop
End With
ie.Document.getelementbyid("userName").Value = "MYUSERNAME"
ie.Document.getelementbyid("Password").Value = "MYPASSWORD"
ie.Document.getelementbyid("Login").Click
Do Until Not ie.Busy And ie.readyState = 4
DoEvents
Loop
ie.Document.getelementbyid("btnConsultarNFSemestre").Click
Do Until Not ie.Busy And ie.readyState = 4
DoEvents
Loop
texto = ie.Document.getelementbyid("dadosDoUsuario").innerText
MsgBox texto
ie.Quit
End Sub
MSXML2.XMLHTTP code (this one doesn't work):
Sub testXMLHTTP()
Dim xml As Object
Dim html As Object
Dim dados As Object
Dim text As Object
Set xml = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
Set html = CreateObject("htmlFile")
With xml
.Open "POST", "https://www.nfp.fazenda.sp.gov.br/Login.aspx", False
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "text/xml"
.send "userName=MYUSERNAME&password=MYPASSWORD"
.Open "GET", "https://www.nfp.fazenda.sp.gov.br/Inicio.aspx", False
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "text/xml"
.send
End With
html.body.innerhtml = xml.responseText
Set objResult = html.GetElementById("dadosDoUsuario")
GetElementById = objResult.innertext
MsgBox GetElementById
End Sub
EDIT: I followed the steps suggested by #Florent B., and added a scripcontrol to get the encoded values for __VIEWSTATE, __VIEWSTATEGENERATOR and __EVENTVALIDATION. Got it working!
Sub testXMLHTTP()
Dim xml As Object
Dim html As HTMLDocument
Dim dados As Object
Dim text As Object
Dim html2 As HTMLDocument
Dim xml2 As Object
Set xml = CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")
Set html = CreateObject("htmlFile")
With xml
.Open "GET", "https://www.nfp.fazenda.sp.gov.br/Login.aspx", False
.send
End With
strCookie = xml.getResponseHeader("Set-Cookie")
html.body.innerhtml = xml.responseText
Set objvstate = html.GetElementById("__VIEWSTATE")
Set objvstategen = html.GetElementById("__VIEWSTATEGENERATOR")
Set objeventval = html.GetElementById("__EVENTVALIDATION")
vstate = objvstate.Value
vstategen = objvstategen.Value
eventval = objeventval.Value
'URL Encode ViewState
Dim ScriptEngine As ScriptControl
Set ScriptEngine = New ScriptControl
ScriptEngine.Language = "JScript"
ScriptEngine.AddCode "function encode(vstate) {return encodeURIComponent(vstate);}"
Dim encoded As String
encoded = ScriptEngine.Run("encode", vstate)
vstate = encoded
'URL Encode Event Validation
ScriptEngine.AddCode "function encode(eventval) {return encodeURIComponent(eventval);}"
encoded = ScriptEngine.Run("encode", eventval)
eventval = encoded
'URL Encode ViewState Generator
ScriptEngine.AddCode "function encode(vstategen) {return encodeURIComponent(vstategen);}"
encoded = ScriptEngine.Run("encode", vstategen)
vstategen = encoded
Postdata = "__EVENTTARGET=" & "&__EVENTARGUMENT=" & "&__VIEWSTATE=" & vstate & "&__VIEWSTATEGENERATOR=" & vstategen & "&__EVENTVALIDATION=" & eventval & "&ctl00$ddlTipoUsuario=#rdBtnNaoContribuinte" & "&ctl00$UserNameAcessivel=Digite+o+Usuário" & "&ctl00$PasswordAcessivel=x" & "&ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$rblTipo=rdBtnNaoContribuinte" & "&ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$UserName=MYUSERNAME" & "&ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$Password=MYPASSWORD" & "&ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$Login=Acessar" & "&ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$txtCpfCnpj=Digite+o+Usuário"
Set xml2 = CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")
Set html2 = CreateObject("htmlFile")
With xml2
.Open "POST", "https://www.nfp.fazenda.sp.gov.br/Login.aspx", False
.setRequestHeader "Cookie", strCookie
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
.setRequestHeader "Content-Lenght", Len(Postdata)
.send (Postdata)
End With
html2.body.innerhtml = xml2.responseText
Set objResult = html2.GetElementById("dadosDoUsuario")
GetElementById = objResult.innertext
MsgBox GetElementById
End Sub
It's possible but not that easy.
First you need to use CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0") and not CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP").
Then follow these steps:
Open and send a GET to https://www.nfp.fazenda.sp.gov.br/login.aspx
Parse and store the cookie from the response header "Set-Cookie"
Parse and store the __VIEWSTATE, __VIEWSTATEGENERATOR, __EVENTVALIDATION from the HTML response
Build the data for the next query with the values parsed previously and with your user-name/password :
__EVENTTARGET:""
__EVENTARGUMENT:""
__VIEWSTATE:"..."
__VIEWSTATEGENERATOR:"..."
__EVENTVALIDATION:"..."
ctl00$ddlTipoUsuario:"#rdBtnNaoContribuinte"
ctl00$UserNameAcessivel:"Digite+o+Usuário"
ctl00$PasswordAcessivel:"x"
ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$rblTipo:"rdBtnNaoContribuinte"
ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$UserName:"..."
ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$Password:"..."
ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$Login:"Acessar"
ctl00$ConteudoPagina$Login1$txtCpfCnpj:"Digite+o+Usuário"
Open a POST to https://www.nfp.fazenda.sp.gov.br/login.aspx
Set the header "Cookie" with the cookie parsed at step 2
Set the header Content-Type: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
Set the header Content-Length with the length of the data
Send the POST with the data from step 4
