Is there a posibility to remove the mention of an user in an bot's answer? I developed a telegram bot with the microsoft bot builder framework and only sending the raw message like an echo bot but in group chat there is always this #username metion before every message my bot sends to the group chat. I added my bot via bot father to telegrams bot list.
At the moment this is not a setting the developer can change. Tracking the issue here: https://github.com/Microsoft/BotBuilder/issues/483

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'm trying to create a bot which can read/receive all messages in a specific channel and send them to me .
my problem here is that i can't find a way to access those messages in my bot
important thing is:
i'm not admin or creator of that channel
i don't want to ask the creator to add my bot as administrator
i've searched in google but i wasn't able to find a solution
and i'm also sure that it is possible to do it, because there are already some junction bots with exact same performance .
any references or suggestions are appreciated .
As already pointed out in the Telegram group of python-telegram-bot, bots can't receive messages from channels where they are not an admin. If you want something like this, you'll have to use a user bot, e.g. a program that controls your private Telegram account (in contrast to controlling a bot account). See here for some info on user bots.
Note that also the provider that you linked seems to be using userbots behind the scenes. More precisely, the docs on the so called "DirectConnection" state that you need to enter a phone number (associated to a telegram account) and then "Follow the instructions" which probably just means to enter the verification code that Telegram sends you. Phone number + verification code is exactly what is needed to control your private Telegram account.

I am using Telegram bot API with AWS Lambda and Zappa.
Everything was working fine. Until I realised that bot's webhook is being called everytime whenever a message is sent by anyone in the group.
I want to limit this webhook requests, as Lambda allows for only 1 million calls which is sufficient if bot is invoked, but only when /commands are called.
As I have to pin and edit messages using bot, that's why administrator permission is must.
I just want my bot to respond only to /commands along with administrator rights.
Please help me in tackling this issue.
I am assuming you added your bot to a Telegram group. In this case, the first thing that you need is group id. This should help: https://github.com/GabrielRF/telegram-id#web-group-id
And then you need to write a function that identifies the status of a chat member. You can do this using getChatMember method in Telegram Bots API.
If the chat member's status is "creator" or "administrator" then the response is sent to that user.
There are 2 things you need to do.
setPrivacy for your bot - go to BotFather chat and use the /setPrivacy command which gives you the ability to set:
'Enable' - your bot will only receive messages that either start with
the '/' symbol or mention the bot by username. (Should be default)
'Disable' - your bot
will receive all messages that people send to groups. Current status
is: DISABLED.
When setting the commands for the bot, set the BotCommandScopeAllChatAdministrators scope which should limit the use of the command only to the admins of the chat.
I have webhook a telegram bot for search data my a hosted
How can ignore positive chat I'd by bot I have a bot to search files from my hosted data And get link using telegram I want that bot just work in groups only If any person try to use it in personal chat it will not give reply means not search data and not give a link
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
Or full command please
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.
