Bot API 10.3 🔁 Button Revolution • Buttons can now be placed right inside any rich message – with multiple native styles and custom alignment. • Out of the box, these buttons support callbacks, Mini Apps, Login URLs, copying text and more. • Bots can now mark inline buttons as disabled. 👻 Ephemeral Messages • Bots can now replace their messages with an ephemeral overlay, then edit it with rich content or newly uploaded media. This unlocks rich, personalized flows and responses running in a single message. 💪 Rich Messages • Bots can now attach documents to rich messages and more easily embed media – including previously uploaded files. • Rich Messages now support expandable quote blocks and compact tables. 🦀 AI Agents • Bots now support a native Stop button for streamed drafts and can optionally preserve partial responses. • And more, see the full changelog for details: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api-changelog#august-24-2026

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: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api-changelog#july-14-2026 ⚠ Warning: Starting July 20, 2026, external websites opened from links inside your Mini App will no longer be able to use Mini App methods by default. Developers can opt out through the @BotFather Mini App. Read more here.
