what's this code even doing, topic_id is always equal to msg.id, topics don't become None unless the group has more than a million messages, ask Telegram to fix that then, otherwise, show the logic of your reply_to part

reply_to = await get_topic_entry_msg_id(group_id, topic_id)
                            if reply_to:
                                await send_with_rotation(gift, group_id, message, reply_to, buttons)
                            else:
                                logging.warning(f"⚠️ Can't reply topic id {topic_id} in {group_id}")

                    previous_availability[slug] = current

            except Exception as e:
                logging.error(f"❌ Error {slug}: {e}")

the thing is I want my bot to be usable where only users can interact with each other

wait so channels can also be groups... I have to check if megagroup is true or not... what about gigagroup? its mentioned admin can change it so only they can send message, but can admins don't do that and group keep being a group?

Hi and welcome to the group. Before asking any questions, please read the rules from the group's description, and don't forget to read the docs. Make sure you are using the latest version with pip3 install -U telethon, since most problems have already been fixed in newer versions.

it's a Telegram feature enabled in that public group. it doesn't have a link because you join by a button not by invite

I'm getting this while handling UpdateBotChatInviteRequester. Creating of the link for the bot and handling its invite link works fine.

    try:
        msg = await client.get_messages(group_id, ids=topic_id)
        return msg.id if msg else None

Then ignore gigagroups they're small percentage of chats, same for channels

you should make a helper method to detect chat types more in depth, message.chat object is guaranteed to exist if event.is_channel which includes all the listed types in the docs. you match and ignore based on attributes

Telethon Chat

20 Jul 2025 07:46

they don't matter, treat it as channel from a messaging pov

Do you know when the second one is being used? What does Public Join Requests mean?

Did I get it right, that the second one doesn't have any attributes set at all?

Telethon Chat

16 Jul 2025 21:25

ExportedChatInvite is their class/type. with two instances, ChatInviteExported / ChatInvitePublicJoinRequests, second object doesn't have a link field

Hi there!

I'm facing some strange issue with Telethon I can't figure out how it happened. I have a bot managing chat access. The bot creates its own invite link and ignores the rest of the invite links

I have a short code that fetches the invite link from the request:

@property
def invite_link(self) -> str | None:
    if isinstance(self.original_update.invite, ChatInviteExported):
        return self.original_update.invite.link

    return None

AttributeError: 'ChatInvitePublicJoinRequests' object has no attribute 'link'
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    return self.original_update.invite.link
  File "/app/community_manager/events/__init__.py", line 52, in invite_link
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    invite_link=event.invite_link,
  File "/app/community_manager/handlers/chat.py", line 131, in handle_join_request
    await callback(event)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/telethon/client/updates.py", line 570, in _dispatch_update

By making the int(chat_id) and as you told me by making await them

start by awaiting the client calls

and spam reported accounts are unlikely to create Chat groups too same as supergroups
