How to obtain the chat_id of a private Telegram channel?

问题:

I use curl to update a my public channels. This kind of syntax:

curl -X POST "https://api.telegram.org/bot144377327:AAGqdElkZ-77zsPRoAXXXXXXXXXX/sendMessage" -d "chat_id=@MyChannel&text=my sample text"

But what's the chat_id of a private channel? It's not the one you have in the private invite.

Because now we can pass a channel username (in the format @channelusername) in the place of chat_id in all methods (and instead of from_chat_id in forwardMessage). But what's the @channelusername of a private channel that I administer?

Thank you

I found the way to write in private channels.

1. You should convert it to public with some @channelName

2. Send message to this channel through Bot API

   https://api.telegram.org/bot111:222/sendMessage?chat_id=@channelName&text=123

3. As response you will get info with chat_id of your channel.

   { "ok" : true, "result" : { "chat" : { "id" : -1001005582487, "title" : "Test Private Channel", "type" : "channel" }, "date" : 1448245538, "message_id" : 7, "text" : "123ds" } }

4. Now you can convert Channel back to private (by deleting channel's link) and send message directly to this chat_id "-1001005582487"

   https://api.telegram.org/bot111:222/sendMessage?chat_id=-1001005582487&text=123

Make channel public cannot be done by user with exist at least 5 public groups/channels, so...problem not solved. Yes, you can revoke one of them, but for now, we cannot retrieve chat id other way.

Did anybody found solution for that case?

update

I found crazy solution :

1. login under your account at web version of Telegram : https://web.telegram.org
2. Find your channel. See to your url, it should be like https://web.telegram.org/#/im?p=c1055587116_11052224402541910257
3. Grab "1055587116" from it, and add "-100" as a prefix.

So... your channel id will be "-1001055587116". Magic happen :)

The easiest way is to invite @get_id_bot in your chat and then type:

/my_id@get_id_bot

Inside your chat

You Can Too Do This:

Step 1)Convert Your Private Channel To Public Channel

Step 2)Set The ChannelName For This Channel

Step 3)then you Can change this Channel to Private

Step 4)Now Sending Your Message Using @ChannelName That you Set In Step 3

note:For Step 1 You Can Change One of Your Public Channel To Private For a short time.

No need to convert the channel to public then make it private.

1. find the id of your private channel. (There are numerous methods to do this, for example see this SO answer)

2. curl -X POST "https://api.telegram.org/botxxxxxx:yyyyyyyyyyy/sendMessage" -d "chat_id=-100CHAT_ID&text=my sample text"

   replace xxxxxx:yyyyyyyyyyy with your bot id, and replace CHAT_ID with the channel id found in step 1. So if channel id is 1234 it would be chat_id=-1001234.

All done!
