Why doesn't sendPhoto work in Telegram API?

Question

PHP

I'm trying to auto-post to a Telegram channel.

$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://api.telegram.org/bot'.$BotAPI.'/sendPhoto?chat_id='.$chat_id.'&photo='.$image);
$result = curl_exec($curl);
echo $result;

Returns bool(false). But if you open the url yourself, then everything works. What is the reason?

Answer 1

The reason for the RKN, most likely. Connect the proxy to cURL, then it should work!
