How to editForumTopic

[PeterHunt]

Hello,

I managed to get the Forum Topics working and this is a great additition to one of my groups. Now I'm wondering how to edit a Forum Topic? As for the manual the msg.payload.content needs to be an object as ;

{ chat_id (integer/string), message_thread_id (integer), name (string) }

But I can't manage to edit the topic, I don't see any errors in the console and when I attach a debug to the output of the sender node it also remains very quiet.

Can someone point me to an example maybe?

Kind regards, Peter Hunt.

Somehow it seems as if the message_thread_id is ignored. Whatever I try, I keep getting Error: ETELEGRAM: 400 Bad Request: invalid message thread identifier specified

And the options object shows "options":{"message_thread_id":" ","chat_id":-1234567890}

I do send a valid message_thread_id which works for bot posting and editing messages. Can you please try and test this?

Oh and another thing I just noticed. Is it possible for the BOT to fetch opening/closing of a topic? Through the receiver node and my_chat_member I don't see any data when I open or close a topic. Not sure if this data is fetchable at all? :)

Hm right now I don't think that this is possible, maybe in future.

note that only "Optional" parameters need to be passed in msg.payload.options. The parameters marked with "yes" in column Required need to be passed in msg.payload.content

Please try msg.payload.content = 1234 // your message_thread_id

I'm sorry, I'm not really familiar with GitHub, I expected to be able to re-open this issue, but I am not. I removed my last comment as I wanted to re-open this issue, but anyways, not to get your attention, this was my last comment regarding to this issue;

Thanks for the feedback. I managed to get payload via the output of the sender node, which is :

payload: object
chatId: -1001871187318
type: "editForumTopic"
content: true
name: "TEST"
options: object
chat_id: -1001871187318
message_thread_id: 18
sentMessageId: undefined
_msgid: "58b6303661b7d638"

But nothing happens regarding to the forum topic. The BOT is admin and has full rights. Does this output look OK? The current input is now ;

msg = {};
msg.payload = {};
msg.payload.chatId = -1001871187318
msg.payload.type = "editForumTopic";
msg.payload.content = 18;
msg.payload.name = "TEST";

return msg;
