set_webhook

template<class Agent>
api_result<boolean_t, Agent&&> set_webhook(Agent &&agent, set_webhook_args_t args)

agent is any object satisfying agent concept.

Use this method to specify a url and receive incoming updates via an outgoing webhook. Whenever there is an update for the bot, we will send an HTTPS POST request to the specified url, containing a JSON-serialized Update. In case of an unsuccessful request, we will give up after a reasonable amount of attempts. Returns True on success. If you’d like to make sure that the Webhook request comes from Telegram, we recommend using a secret path in the URL, e.g. https://www.example.com/<token>. Since nobody else knows your bot’s token, you can be pretty sure it’s us.

struct set_webhook_args_t

Arguments that should be passed to set_webhook().

string_t url

HTTPS url to send updates to. Use an empty string to remove webhook integration

optional_t<input_file_t> certificate

Upload your public key certificate so that the root certificate in use can be checked. See our self-signed guide for details.

optional_t<string_t> ip_address

The fixed IP address which will be used to send webhook requests instead of the IP address resolved through DNS

optional_t<integer_t> max_connections

Maximum allowed number of simultaneous HTTPS connections to the webhook for update delivery, 1-100. Defaults to 40. Use lower values to limit the load on your bot’s server, and higher values to increase your bot’s throughput.

optional_t<array_t<string_t>> allowed_updates

A JSON-serialized list of the update types you want your bot to receive. For example, specify [“message”, “edited_channel_post”, “callback_query”] to only receive updates of these types. See Update for a complete list of available update types. Specify an empty list to receive all update types except chat_member (default). If not specified, the previous setting will be used. Please note that this parameter doesn’t affect updates created before the call to the setWebhook, so unwanted updates may be received for a short period of time.

optional_t<boolean_t> drop_pending_updates

Pass True to drop all pending updates
