Bot API 10.2
👻 Ephemeral Messages
• Bots can now send ephemeral group messages that are visible only to a specific user – ideal for welcome messages, whispers, summaries and more.
• Out of the box, ephemeral messages support most media types.
• Bot commands can now be marked as ephemeral, letting users discretely reach out to bots in groups.
• Bots can easily reply to ephemeral messages or delete them before they expire.
📝 Rich Messages
• Bots can now build outgoing rich messages directly from structured entity blocks, as an alternative to Markdown or HTML.
• Rich messages using Markdown or HTML can now explicitly attach embedded media like photos, videos, animations and more.
💬 Communities
• Introduced initial support for Communities — several groups, channels, and bots linked together around a shared topic or audience.
• Bots can already check which Community a chat belongs to and detect relevant service messages.
• And more, see the full changelog for details:

⚠ Warning: Starting July 20, 2026, Mini App methods will be restricted to the respective Mini App domain. Developers can opt out through the @BotFather Mini App. Read more here.
