Question

I'm working on an application that integrates with Telegram and I had the problem to find a way how to receive messages from groups using Telegram Bot API

My code so far for sending a message to a group or channel my bot already admin on it. any suggestions?

static async Task<Telegram.Bot.Types.Message> DoSomethingAsync()
{
    var Bot = new Telegram.Bot.Api("api_token");

    return await Bot.SendTextMessage("chatid","Hello");
}

By default, your bot can only see messages in /command@YourBotName format, or reply to its message.

To receive all messages, please goto @BotFather , and turn off privacy mode , then re-invite your bot to group.

/setprivacy — Set which messages your bot will receive when added to a group. With privacy mode disabled, the bot will receive all messages.
