Bots Interaction

Users can interact with other bots via plain text messages as well as inline queries.

Inline Bots

• If a bot accepts inline queries, you can call it by using get_inline_bot_results() to get the list of its inline results for a query:

  # Get bot results for "Fuzz Universe" from the inline bot @vid
  bot_results = app.get_inline_bot_results("vid", "Fuzz Universe")
  

  

  get_inline_bot_results() is the equivalent action of writing @vid Fuzz Universe and getting the results list.

• After you retrieved the bot results, you can use send_inline_bot_result() to send a chosen result to any chat:

  # Send the first result to your own chat
  app.send_inline_bot_result(
      "me",
      bot_results.query_id,
      bot_results.results[0].id
  )
  

  

  send_inline_bot_result() is the equivalent action of choosing a result from the list and sending it to a chat.
