get_chat_history


Description:

public async Messages get_chat_history (int64 chat_id, int64 from_message_id, int32 offset, int32 limit, bool only_local) throws TDLibError

Returns messages in a chat. The messages are returned in reverse chronological order (i.e., in order of decreasing message_id). For optimal performance, the number of returned messages is chosen by TDLib. This is an offline method if only_local is true

Parameters:

chat_id

Chat identifier

from_message_id

Identifier of the message starting from which history must be fetched; use 0 to get results from the last message

offset

Specify 0 to get results from exactly the message from_message_id or a negative offset up to 99 to get additionally some newer messages

limit

The maximum number of messages to be returned; must be positive and can't be greater than 100. If the offset is negative, the limit must be greater than or equal to -offset. For optimal performance, the number of returned messages is chosen by TDLib and can be smaller than the specified limit

only_local

Pass true to get only messages that are available without sending network requests
