Sending message with method createChatInviteLink return nothing

[mazanur]

Response from telegram {"invite_link":"https://t.me/+SEgfYrEGlSwzMjAy", "creator":{"id":1295847044,"is_bot":true,"first_name":"***","username":"*"},"member_limit":1,"creates_join_request":false,"is_primary":false,"is_revoked":false}

After Unmarshal, message has not inviteLink

Hi! You must provide youre code first, if you want help

But it looks like that youre use it wrong way

You must use Request method and provide tgbotapi.CreateChatInviteLinkConfig for it

Hi, that's exactly what I did.

But I want to use the Send method to create a link and return a Message, where the ChatInviteLink field will be

Works for me like so:

        response, err := bot.Request(createInviteLinkConfig)
        if err != nil {
            return msg, err
        }
        var dat map[string]interface{}
        json.Unmarshal(response.Result, &dat)

   // just a simple demo that works
   import (
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"
    "time"

    tgbotapi "github.com/go-telegram-bot-api/telegram-bot-api/v5"
)
func gen_link(){
    var (
        chatCfg = tgbotapi.ChatConfig{ChatID: req.ChatID}
        resMap  map[string]interface{}
    )
    chatInviteLinkConfig := tgbotapi.CreateChatInviteLinkConfig{
        ChatConfig:        chatCfg,
        Name:                 "invite test",
        ExpireDate:         int(time.Now().Add(1 * time.Minute).Unix()),
        MemberLimit:        1,                                         
        CreatesJoinRequest: false,                                     
    }
    response, _ := bot.Request(chatInviteLinkConfig)
    err = json.Unmarshal(response.Result, &resMap)
    fmt.Println("resMap:", resMap)
        fmt.Println("invite_link:",resMap["invite_link"])
}
