How to send content to a telegram bot in a group?

Question

Python

The problem is that the bot in telegram groups does not process content except for direct commands through "/"
Task: each user in the group can send a video message, video, and the bot must process this case. I managed to get the bot to react to sending a video as a replay to any bot message, which is not very convenient and in this case there is no information about the sender in the chat object (message.chat.user_name == None).
Hence the question: how can I make the bot process any message in the chat, or somehow indicate that the sent video is addressed to the bot?

Answer 1

if the bot is an admin in a group, then as far as I remember, all messages in the group are available to him.

Answer 2

how can I make the bot process any message in the chat

What about t.me/BotFather ?

- /setprivacy
- 'Enable' - your bot will only receive messages that either start with the '/' symbol or mention the bot by username.
'Disable' - your bot will receive all messages that people send to groups.
Current status is: DISABLED
