Kick the bot from a group

See original GitHub issue

I was wondering if there’s a way to kick the bot from a group when added

I implemented my custom check to verify that a chat (group/channel) is allowed to have the bot in it and if the verification fails I would like the bot to kick itself from the chat

I found this

bot.execute(new KickChatMember(chatId, userId));

but i don’t think that this will help me at all or am I wrong?

No, bot can not kick itself You can add other bot which will be responsible for kicking only 😃

there’s a telegram API call as far as I know called https://api.telegram.org/bot/leaveChat where you can specify the chat_id of the chat to leave

you can find more at https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#leavechat

The problem here is that I would like people to not add my bot to their group/channels and I found this call in the telegram api but not here in the java library

Yes but I am doing a filter on allowed chat manually to see if the bot should be in a group and the LeaveChat works perfectly
