Every message has a chat field and each chat has a type see telegram bot api
Type of chat, can be either “private”, “group”, “supergroup” or
“channel”
check if type of chat of message is equal to “group” or “supergroup” then do what you want.
In php can check like below
if($message->chat->type == "group")

Can you clear before using this command
if($message->chat->type == "group")
Need other commands in header

My goal is to send messages to a specific telegram group using a telegram bot. So, I created a telegram bot and I added itself to the telegram group in order to retrieve the chat_id param. However I am not able to get the chat_id, calling the getUpdates API, I always get:
ok true
result []
Here the steps I did to try to get the chat_id:
I Created a new bot via botFather.
I Created a new telegram group and added the bot.
I used the getMe API to see that everything was good with the bot.
I disabled for privacy the bot (suggested in several forum).
To extract the chat_id, I used the getUpdates method. I did a GET with this URL https://api.telegram.org/botTOKEN/getUpdates (where TOKEN is substitute with what I got from botFather)
I continued with the step 5, while writing random messages on the telegram group and also calling the bot with /start.
There are no coding tasks till now, I have just been using the telegram app.
Not able to get the chat_id; hope you can help me, thanks in advance.
I need to send message from my own account with my nickname and profile (not from bot account) to any selected contact or group. How can I do that? I found bots with similar behaviour but messages are sent from bot account not from my profile which is what I need.
what you're looking for is a so-called "userbot" or "selfbot", i.e. a bot that works with the Telegram API in contrast to the Telegram Bot API. Searching for Telegram userbot library <your preferred programming language> should probably get you started.
I've been using a Telegram BOT to send notifications for a group, and for users.
I already know i can get Chat ID by receiving a message from the user on my bot, using getUpdates.
I also know i can get Group ID using the same method...
But what i really need is:
There is three users in my group.
My bot.
Me.
Another user that didn't sent any messages to my bot so it does not appear on getUpdates
Is it possible to get this third user his ID?
PS: I am the group owner, and also added my bot as Admin...
The third user is a normal user.
Can someone help me?
Thanks!
That's not possible with the offical Telegram Bot API
Possible Workarounds:
Hold a list of your own. If a user is joining (new_chat_member), lefting (left_chat_member), somebody is sending a message in the group, and so on. Check Message for more information.
Check if a user is a member of the group with getChatMember.
Also may be helpful: getChatMembersCount and getChatAdministrators
As per the Telegram Bot API's documentation I see it is possible to retrieve a bot's name (using getMe).
It is also possible to retrieve a botpic of a specific bot (using getUserProfilePhotos).
I've read Telegram's documentation again and again and I cannot find a way to obtain either of a Telegram bot's Description, About or Commands.
Also I cannot find any way to check what a specific bot's allow groups, group privacy and domain are set to.
Are Telegram Bots in some alpha/experimental state ?
It's a powerful idea but I see they lack most of the features you (as a developer) would expect them to have.
I see there are a lot of random features instead.
How could I retrieve the upper properties (Description, About, Commands) for a specific bot using the Telegram Bot API ?
How could I retrieve a specific bot owner account's info, phone number Telegram Bot API ?
P.S: I have all the tokens of the bots I am about to retrieve the upper information for.
You can't with the bots API but it will be possible with userbot (a bot running as regular telegram account) using client API.
Obtaining number and information of the bot owner would be leaking of private data, privacy...
Is it possible to create a bot who manage more than one conversation with one user?
I need to create a bot able to make the link between a random chat and telegram.
For example, if I don't wont to use Facebook Messenger anymore, creating a bot who send me every new Facebook message from my account to my Telegram number. The bot would create a new conversation for each unique Facebook user sending me message. Or, if it's not possible, a bot who create a new temporary bot for each new user conversation and give me his #name.
Is it possible with the Telegram Bot API?
According to the latest telegram bot api you can make more than one bot, but one thing that is crucial is the bot's API token that is made manually through botFather. You can make a single bot and make other bots inherit its features and every time a new user sends you a message assign a bot to him/her. Up to here, it's possible but for API token all you can do is to make as much bots as your Facebook friends count and store their api tokens in a DB and pass one of the api tokens to the bot that stands for a user.
This is what I think can solve your problem but the api token part is a bit strange 😀 although you can send a notification from the main bot to your own account when the number of unsigned api tokens get less than 5.
As you know the number of Facebook friends can change and any of them at any time can text you so there must be enough tokens because every time one of them texts you for the first time a bot must be created with a pre-made api token and inherit the features from the main bot. From that moment that token and that bot stand for the person who tried to message you.
Also I think there must be a limit to the number of the bots that you
can make using one telegram account which can be solved using
different accounts.
What you want is possible, as you know every single telegram user has a unique chatID in telegram so if your friends or users text to your bot directly you can use a code like below to answer their messages from your own telegram account and make the bot send it to the related user:
if(update.Message.Text != null)
{
var req = new SendMessage(Your_Own_ChatID, "This message is sent from the user with chat ID: "+update.Message.Chat.Id.ToString()+"\n In order to reply it type the user's chat ID and add one comma then type in your text and tap on send.\nThe message:"+ update.Message.Text);
await bot.MakeRequestAsync(req);
continue;
}
else if (update.Message.Text.Contains(",") && update.Message.Chat.Id == Your_Own_ChatID)
{
string sender_chatID = update.Message.Text.Split(',').First();
string Message = update.Message.Text.Split(',').Last();
var req = new SendMessage(long.Parse(sender_chatID), Message);
await bot.MakeRequestAsync(req);
continue;
}
But if your users send the messages from Facebook to you and you want the bot to send them to your telegram account and answer them again through the bot using Facebook API or something else, all that must change is:
Instead of sender's Chat ID you must save his/her Facebook username and reply it with the FB username instead of telegram Chat ID.
Note that this code is just a sample and of course separating the Chat ID and the reply is a simple solution, but my recommendation is to use inline or custom keyboards to answer the message and that way you don't even need to type down the user's ChatID or FB account.
Also you can use telegram's reply feature and check if the reply is null and find the Chat ID(or FB account or ...) of the sender of the message your trying to reply and send the reply directly to that user.
That is achievable using the method that is used in this project.
[https://github.com/idoco/intergram][1]
Essentially, you create a random userid for each user. In order to reply to that specific user, you have to use the reply to message method in your telegram client. Ie... right click on the message to reply to it.
