Get message ID of last sent message from Discord.py webhook

This is the sync code for my discord embed, I've been trying to get the message ID of the message sent so that I can edit it, I'm trying to automate some tasks but been unsuccessful so far.
Here's the code:
embed = discord.Embed(title="Post Title")
embed.add_field(name="Req AMount", value="100")
embed.add_field(name="Return AMount", value="120")
webhook = SyncWebhook.partial(1055498127618097174, "prxoD_ZW0vO6ghrwZNhOiwI9AeLBfNYYss6MTLPkjgvAb_B3WJgWNLMMtPWYZ67GTYbn")
sending = webhook.send(embed=embed)
Any help would be appreciated thanks

In the webhook.send message, if you set the parameter wait to True, you will get a WebhookMessage object returned, which you can then use the edit/delete the message your webhook sent.
Note that the WebhookMessage object doesn't have the ID parameter but has an edit and delete methods. Typically, as webhooks are used to send messages to channels/servers you might not have a bot in/permissions for, what you can do with the returned message object is a little less.

Posting a message in Symphony from Python

I'm trying to send a message from Symphony using Python.
https://developers.symphony.com/restapi/reference#create-message-v4
I found this page but I don't really know how to use it ( There's a cURL and a post url .. ) and I don't understand how I can use requests in this context ( still a beginner in API ).
Can someone help me to figure out how I can use this page to send a message from Python.
Thank you

You have to pass some required things in headers and use multipart/from-data content-type.
If you know about the postman then first with that and pass required headers.
files ={"message":"<messageML>Hello world!</messageML>"}
headers={
"sessionToken": "SESSION_TOKEN",
"keyManagerToken": "KEY_MANAGER_TOKEN"
}
requests.post("https://YOUR-AGENT-URL.symphony.com/agent/v4/stream/:sid/message/create", files=files,headers=headers)

https://github.com/finos/symphony-bdk-python/blob/main/examples has alot of examples on how to use symphony sdk. From python you don't want to use the api. This is the simple code to send a message from a bot. If you do not have a bot set up yet, follow https://docs.developers.symphony.com/building-bots-on-symphony/configuration/configure-your-bot-for-bdk-2.0-for-python NOTE you will need an admin user to follow these steps.
from symphony.bdk.core.config.loader import BdkConfigLoader
from symphony.bdk.core.symphony_bdk import SymphonyBdk
config = BdkConfigLoader.load_from_file("config.yaml")
async with SymphonyBdk(config) as bdk:
streams = bdk.streams()
messages = bdk.messages()
user_id = 123 # this can be found by clicking on a profile and copy profile link eg symphony://?userId=31123123123
stream = await streams.create_im_or_mim([user_id])
await messages.send_message(stream.id, f"<messageML>Message you want to send</messageML>")

problem with forward message method in telegram bot

I am trying to forward a message in telegram bot API in python . It shows "Bad Request: chat_id is empty" despite using same chat_id in sendMessage and works perfectly fine.
https://api.telegram.org/bot{BOT_TOKEN}/forwardMessage?chat_id={CHAT_ID}&from_chat_id={ID}&message_id={MID}
my problem is what is the message id and how can i find it?
for example chat id is like this number 123456789.
what does message id look like ?

You are a bot. So, people interact with you (directly or in a group). When a message is sent to your bot, you would receive a callback that includes the message details (including the chat_id, the sender chat id, the message id, and all other details). Something like this (see message->message_id and message->from_id):
{
"update_id":1111,
"message":{
"message_id":111,
"from":{
"id":1111,
"is_bot":false,
"first_name":"...",
"last_name":"...",
"username":"...",
},
"chat":{
"id":1111,
"first_name":"...",
"last_name":"...",
"username":"...",
"type":"private"
},
"date": 1111,
"text":"...."
}
}
So, you can store those details and use them to forward that message to another chat. In each chat (unique chat id), each message has a chat id (which is usually an incremental number) and by these two identifier, you can uniquely select which message from which chat should be forwarded.

Depends on where you want to access a chat_id, you can use different ways.
if you want to send a specific message to a user or bot that you don't know his chat_id, you can print a message from that user and access chat_id. Or simply forward a message from that user to #ShowChatIdBot and it returns you the related chat_id.
In fact this bot extract data from your forwarded message and gives back chat_id in that message to you.

How to send message with #ID telegram using telethon library

I want send message with telethon but i dont have phone number this .
i have only #username Telegram.
with this code i can send message for my contact phone :
result = client.invoke(ImportContactsRequest([contact], replace=True))
contacts = client.invoke(GetContactsRequest(""))
for u in result.users:
client.send_message(u, 'Hi')
But i want send message to #username Telegram

You can just do the following now:
client.send_message('username', 'hello')
Old answer:
It's on the Project's wiki, quoted below.
Via ResolveUsernameRequest
An "entity" is used to refer to either an User or a Chat (which includes a Channel). Perhaps the most straightforward way to get these is by resolving their username:
from telethon.tl.functions.contacts import ResolveUsernameRequest
result = client.invoke(ResolveUsernameRequest('username'))
found_chats = result.chats
found_users = result.users
# result.peer may be a PeerUser, PeerChat or PeerChannel
See Peer for more information about this result.

Telegram Bot "chat not found"

I have the following code in Python to send a message to myself from a bot.
import requests
token = '123456789:ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHI'
method = 'sendMessage'
myuserid = 1949275XX
response = requests.post(
url='https://api.telegram.org/bot{0}/{1}'.format(token, method),
data={'chat_id': myuserid, 'text': 'hello friend'}
).json()
print(response)
but this returns {'description': 'Bad Request: chat not found', 'error_code': 400, 'ok': False}
What am I doing wrong? I got myuserid by sending /getid to #myidbot and I got my token from #BotFather

As #maak pointed out, you need to first send a message to the bot before the bot can send messages to you.

I was using prefix # before the value of chat_id as suggested everywhere. I removed it and it started working.
Note: if your chat id is 12345678 then you need to prefix it with -100 such that it is -10012345678.
Example Postman call:
/sendMessage?chat_id=-10012345678&text=Let's get together

If your trying to send messages to a group, you must add a ‘-‘ in front of your chat ID.
For example:
TELEGRAM_REG_CHAT_ID="1949275XX"
should be
TELEGRAM_REG_CHAT_ID="-1949275XX"

There is a way to send notifications messages to telegram. It's a bit tricky but the tutorial is great!
http://bernaerts.dyndns.org/linux/75-debian/351-debian-send-telegram-notification
I just sended a message of my apache state to a privat channel.
Works also on public channel but it's not what i wantet. As you call a script (bash) you can prepare the parameters in any script language.
Hope that helps.

For me it worked only with # prefix before channel id

I had some trouble with this after upgrading to a supergroup. The chat_id was updated and it was a bit harder to find this new id.
In the end I solved this with this by following this comment: https://stackoverflow.com/a/56078309/14213187

If you use a username, it does not require any prefix. That means the following are incorrect:
https://t.me/vahid_esmaily_ie
t.me/vahid_esmaily_ie
And this is the correct case:
vahid_esmaily_ie

If you want to use a bot message to the channel, you can refer step here
Steps:
Create a Telegram public channel
Create a Telegram BOT (for example x_bot) via BotFather
Set the x_bot as an administrator in your channel
the chat_id is #x_bot, it's a part of https://t.me/x_bot that does not add your channel name.

Telegram bots can't send messages to user, if that user hasn't started conversation with bot yet, or bot is not present in chat (if it's a group chat). This issue is not related to the library, this is simply Telegram restriction, so that bots can't spam users without their permission.
you need to first send a message to the bot before the bot can send messages to you.
