These examples assume you have read :ref:`accessing-the-full-api`.
Talking to Inline Bots
**********************
You can query an inline bot, such as `@VoteBot`__ (note, *query*,
not *interact* with a voting message), by making use of the
:tl:`GetInlineBotResultsRequest` request:
.. code-block:: python
from telethon.tl.functions.messages import GetInlineBotResultsRequest
bot_results = client(GetInlineBotResultsRequest(
bot, user_or_chat, 'query', ''
))
And you can select any of their results by using
:tl:`SendInlineBotResultRequest`:
.. code-block:: python
from telethon.tl.functions.messages import SendInlineBotResultRequest
client(SendInlineBotResultRequest(
get_input_peer(user_or_chat),
obtained_query_id,
obtained_str_id
))
Talking to Bots with special reply markup
*****************************************
To interact with a message that has a special reply markup, such as
`@VoteBot`__ polls, you would use :tl:`GetBotCallbackAnswerRequest`:
.. code-block:: python
from telethon.tl.functions.messages import GetBotCallbackAnswerRequest
client(GetBotCallbackAnswerRequest(
user_or_chat,
msg.id,
data=msg.reply_markup.rows[wanted_row].buttons[wanted_button].data
))
It's a bit verbose, but it has all the information you would need to
show it visually (button rows, and buttons within each row, each with
its own data).
