Is it possible to forward files already stored on Telegram to the web?

[2640yang]

Since a large number of files have been stored in Telegram, it is inconvenient to download and upload them again.

[musahi0128]

I assume to the web is to the web UI. You can do it like this.

1. Forward the files to your TelDrive channel if the files is in another chat/group/channel
2. Get the message id. One way to do it is to forward the files from your TelDrive channel to @JsonDumpBot and note the forward_from_message_id
3. Add entry for the file in the files table on the TelDrive db

I believe your request was out of scope and therefore will not get a response from the developer. So here you have the basic idea on how to do it manually. I once imported 20k~ of files with similar approach.

Thanks

Hello @musahi0128 , Thanks for the suggestion, could you please explain better the procedure? I have seen in the table files that there are many column but no message_id.. there is ID but seems a random generated value.. I hope in your help, Best regards Stefano

[musahi0128]

@wes1993 show me what you are looking at and I will do my best to clarify. Thanks

[wes1993]

@musahi0128 Thanks for yoru fast reply :-D I have many files in the channel used by teldrive (Uploaded via Telegram API not with TelDrive), if is possibile i want to add this files to TelDrive.

My question is there is a script that reads all the information needed and INSERT in the TelDrive Files table?

Best Regards Stefano

I can deduce other information according to the rules and fill in the data table files, but I do not know how to fill in the primary key ID in the files table. There is no associated information either in the data database or in the information given by the Json Dump Bot. How should I fill in the primary key ID in files?

There is a way to add an existing file to teldrive if you have a beginner level of programming knowledge namely making http post calls

Thank you so much for your response & your method; And your solution completely solved my question. I dont know this repo have these APIs If you don't talk it

Maybe something changed in the recent version. You can upload a file from the browser and see the network tab to see what's being sent.

Everything looks normal when uploading from browser and downloading the same file from browser. uploading log

Is this feature being considered for the project or any easier way to automate it? Apart from the message id, other values needed for the api call or DB insert are difficult to find.
