Need some help #59

Open OsintUK opened 10 months ago

OsintUK commented 10 months ago

So when I go to run a basic Telepathy query I get the following:

The API access for bot users is restricted. The method you tried to invoke cannot be executed as a bot (caused by GetHistoryRequest)

Hi! It seems you're trying to use this via details from the Telegram Bot API, rather than from setting up a Telegram's main API. Methods from one will not work on the other.

You'll need to set up a Telegram account and then get API details via this method. https://core.telegram.org/api/obtaining_api_id

Let me know if that works for you, or if you run into any other problems.
