Search for a file in my channel with Telegram Bot C#

Question

Suppose I have a telegram bot that is Admin of a channel. Is there any way I can search for a music file with its name?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, you can do this by bot now, but you can suggest it to @BotSupport . :(

You can think about Telegram dorsn't let you get message list, even single message, so you need to log all useful updates to your own database .

Answer 2

You can't search on your group with Telegram bot, but you can revise and save file from group and then search on your database. A Telegram bot is not allowed to search on group. Its not possible.
