´Hi.
From those screenshots everything seems fine.
Can you show me the inject node main menu (not with the edit JSON window)?

Sara

Everything seems fine.
I can’t see why it’s not working. Can you create the flow from the start?
Can you export the nodes of that flow? So that I can take a better look?
I’m currently out of the office, I’ll only be able to take a look at it next Wednesday.

Hi. I had a similar ‘chat not found’ error when trying to inject messages. After a lot of frustration, I eventually resolved the issue by initiating a chat on the configured Bot within the Telegram application on my phone – simply typed a message in the bot window and sent it – after the chat existed all worked ok
Hope this helps

Thanks Andy that was the problem You are a champion. Sara good ideato add this to the steps in your book unless I mssed it of course.

Hi again.
I’m so sorry for that. My bot already had a conversation, so it never occurred to me that could be an issue.
I’ll definitely add that to the eBook.
Thanks for your patience.
I’ll mark this issue as resolved. If you need further help, you just need to open a new question in our forum.
Regards,
Sara
