Please kindly someone explain me how can the Telegram bot could understand who is sending the command in group chats and respond it with the the unique answer which is just for that user.
Surely in this case security issues should be considered and a user must not send command as another user.
I guess I can use username to send along with command.
Any suggestions...
The Message Object contains two objects apart from other objects:
Chat, message['chat'] which represents the Chat from which the message is coming. In your case the group.
User, message['from'] which represents the user that sent the message/command.
So it's easy to differentiate which user sent the message. And in case of Private chats, both the Chat object and the User Object are same.

What I need is the type of this chat message, whether it is a personal conversation or a group conversation, not the interlocutor (I don't know if I say this, can you understand what I mean
https://docs.telethon.dev/en/stable/modules/custom.html?highlight=group#module-telethon.tl.custom.dialog
async for dialog in client.iter_dialogs():
if dialog.is_channel:
....
I looked through the documentation to find this, and after using it, it shows "telethon.errors.rpcerrorlist.BotMethodInvalidError: The API access for bot users is restricted. The method you tried to invoke cannot be executed as a bot (caused by GetDialogsRequest)
"
#lonami,
Is there any other way?
iter_dialogs method is only for user clients not for bot clients and you can use
await client.get_entity(<id or username here>) which gives your info about whether the id belongs to user or a chat or a bot.
I'm looking for a telegram bot that will allow the admins or group moderators to first approve a message before the message is released to the greater group. Admins or moderators should be able to either approve or decline a message sent by a user of a group that way to keep control of messages and content of the group ?
Telegram is not made use of this, I think this is impossible.
You can try allow any message in group, and if admin approved, bot forward it to channel.
What about scrabbling the message posted by the users so when user sends message to group other users can't read it but only admins can read it and have to type password to open and read message ?
I'm developing a Telegram bot, and I want to know whether a user, that has started a private chat with my bot, has seen a certain message sent by bot, and to know when has he seen it.
Is it possible to do so?
Thank you very much.
That's currently not possible.
I'm using this solution.
Create a channel specially for your bot
Let your robot send message from this channel to users, you can use forward method.
Now you can see how many users have seen your message
Telegram Bot API has limit functionality. There is absolutely no way to get message view count at the time of this comment.
Usually TDLib can be used instead of Telegram Bot. It is Telegram client library. You can use it directly or make it as services for BOT to call.
For example. use TdApi.GetMessage to get the message, and the returned message has field of interactionInfo which contains forwardCount or viewCount.
perhaps this answer help you :
in the end of your message place
link example : yoursite.com\checkvisit.php?id=1234
when user open message link automatic run for telegram ...
you can understand message was read
you must in checkvisit.php set to check db if id exist and not read set it to read
then id in db remove or disable
but this method simple - telegram must add 1 parameter to return this
sorry my english not good
it is not possible yet , you might want to search for Madeline bot
I create a group on Telegram and created a bot and add in.
I am trying to send a message to group that I created and the error shown as below
{"ok":false,"error_code":403,"description":"[Error]: Forbidden: can't write to chat with deleted user"}
I have use getUpdates from Bot Documents and managed to get chat id and doesn't work again for me. p2p (private type message) works for me but not group type.
Any advice please? Thank you.
Yes you can, you have to invite the bot into the group, grab the chat_id of the group and send the message as you are sending a normal message to a private user.
The error message is self-explanatory tough.
I have chatId and want send messages while execute some tasks from java code. I found this explain on telegram "Bots can't initiate conversations with users. A user must either add them to a group or send them a message first. People can use telegram.me/ links or username search to find your bot." But my task works good when I use https request directly from browser. My bot perfectly answer for requests but how I can do this without user request?
I can not truly understand your case!
Anyway, your bot can send a message to a chat ID Only if the user witch blongs to the specified chat ID added your bot (send start to a bot).
and if it happened then send your message with
/sendMessage
