First of all I send a video to my bot to get _fileid:

Then I try to send video like this:

bot.send_video(query.message.chat.id, data='BQADAgADjAMAAoE_-Erybi9R9xMKlBYE', reply_markup=keyboard, caption='Как работает соляная пещера Соль Плюс? Посмотрите в видео 👆') but get an error:

Trying to send with URL: bot.send_video(query.message.chat.id, data='https://youtu.be/NndioZqJzww', reply_markup=keyboard) doesn't work as well:

What am I doing wrong?

P.S.: A couple of days ago with another bot token it worked! (then I used another _fileid of the video) P.P.S.: Using video argument (as wrote in Bot API of Telegram) instead of data, I recieve:

2019-08-22 23:18:11,539 (util.py:65 WorkerThread2) ERROR - TeleBot: "TypeError occurred, args=("send_video() got an unexpected keyword argument 'video'",) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/prisekin48/.virtualenvs/env3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/telebot/util.py", line 59, in run task(*args, *kwargs) File "salt_bot.py", line 68, in send_article bot.sendvideo(query.message.chat.id, video='BQADAgADjAMAAoE-Erybi9R9xMKlBYE', reply_markup=keyboard, caption='Как работает соляная пещера Соль Плюс?

I'm having this issue too. But in my case, I can't send photos.
