Configuration
4 fields, none required. A dotted path is a nested object and name[] an array of objects — the editor renders the same tree.
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
chat_id The chat holding the message: a numeric chat id, or an @channelusername. Required unless inline_message_id is set. | string | No | — | — | — |
message_id Id of the message to edit. | integer | No | — | ≥ 1 | — |
inline_message_id Id of an inline message to edit instead of a chat message; use this or chat_id plus message_id, never both. | string | No | — | — | — |
reply_markup Keyboard or markup for the message, as the JSON object Telegram documents (inline_keyboard, keyboard, remove_keyboard or force_reply). A JSON string is accepted too and parsed for you. | object | No | — | — | — |
- At least one of inline_message_id, chat_id must be set.
Output
One shape.
result
| Field | Type | Example |

{
"message": {},
"message_id": 0,
"ok": true
}Notes
- chat_id is a numeric chat/user id or an @channelusername. A bot can only message a user who started it, or a group/channel it has been added to.
- The bot token sits in the request URL, so it is redacted out of every error message and dry-run report these nodes produce.
- Telegram answers HTTP 200 even for failures; the node reads the {'ok': …} envelope and raises on ok:false with Telegram's own description.
- Leave reply_markup empty to strip the keyboard entirely.
See Edit Message Buttons run in a workflow.
In a technical demo we add the Telegram connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
