Bot can't recognize if the message is a reply #2034

Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

  1. What version of pyTelegramBotAPI are you using? latest
  2. What OS are you using? windows
  3. What version of python are you using? 3.11.4

here is a code snippet i was trying out, @bot.message_handler(commands=['reveal']) def handle_message(message): if message.reply_to_message: replied_id = message.reply_to_message.message_id bot.reply_to(message, f"The replied-to message's ID is: {replied_id}") else: bot.reply_to(message, "You need to reply to a message to use the /reveal command.") It seems like the bot cannot recognize if a message was a reply. Things i have tried:

  1. Tried to change all the different settings on my bot including privacy modes
  2. Tried in a different group
  3. made the bot an admin None seemed to work.

Message.reply_to seems to be a none type rather than a true or false, the same snippet is used across a lot of codes that are using the library yet it's not functioning

No True/False. Message on success.

as you see, i still get None type despite it being a reply, I don't get the value as a message

Apparently the bot was added after the message was sent. thought the bots had access to messages or at least are given info once a reply is made. It's solved. Thanks ❤️
