Description
Please remove the minus sign from the Chat ID numbers. It didn't work at all for me with HTTP 400 error until I just removed the minus sign. Then it worked flawlessly. Thank you!
Hey @JZ-SmartThings what type of chat you got? In our docs it mentions Group IDs start with a hyphen, supergroup IDs start with -100
In the BotFather I just did /newbot then joined it, then wrote an initial message so that it shows up at this URL:
https://api.telegram.org/botXXX:YYY/getUpdates
After getting that, it's just a number without any dashes. It would be the chat.id field of the json. Once I took out the dash which I obviously saw in your instructions, it finally worked. With a dash it did not, said couldn't find chat ID.
Thanks!
UPDATE: it's this field that is documented: DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_TELEGRAM="-49999333876"
