Thank you for the hint! It is a problem on Telegram side, but I quickly found a workaround.
Check out the latest test version and tell me if this workaround is working for you. Both Image Tag and URL based images
Never tested that case. Currently I also don’t know a simple fix, since the config is saved inside the homey. What I could do is a export/import function for the config. I’ll take a look at this next weekend.
So for now I have an advanced flow asking a question to a group chat, expecting an exact text reply to trigger the action. Something that would be very neat is to send a question to the chat presenting two buttons, yes / no, for example. Eliminating the typing and you can then quickly action whatever you need.
Have no real experience from buttons in telegram, assume it requires a separate instance and additional coding on the bot owner side? Nevertheless, I second the request for improved ability to reply back to Homey via Telegram with a decision.
Hi @spkesDE , I was just thinking today that there isn’t any Homey app that could call you instead of sending notification or message- eg. I can imagine when there is some Alarm, I would like to get disturbed and sometimes notification is just hidden among others notifications… do you think it would be possible in the future with you app or it’s not possible, that nobody ever implement it yet Thank you, it’s just an idea
@Sharkys Possible is everything but i don’t know how long this project will take since I would have implement some kind of text-to-voice lib and find out how telegram calls works.
This is something I can take a look at it when I’m have a couple days of aka Holidays.
I’m already one it But working fulltime as a paramedic is currently something different. I don’t know when I’ll complete this project.
Thanks for the tip but this doesn’t do the trick I am afraid.
I have set the following:
/Setprivacy: disabled
/setjoingroups: disabled
Sending text or pictures from Homey to the Telegram bot works great. However I don’t get it running the other way around. The log file shows time and date from me sending a message in the group to the bot but is says: “[object Object]”. Don’t know if this is normal?
