telegram.ChatPermissions#

class telegram.ChatPermissions(*args, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: telegram.TelegramObject

Describes actions that a non-administrator user is allowed to take in a chat.

Objects of this class are comparable in terms of equality. Two objects of this class are considered equal, if their can_send_messages, can_send_media_messages, can_send_polls, can_send_other_messages, can_add_web_page_previews, can_change_info, can_invite_users and can_pin_messages are equal.

Note

Though not stated explicitly in the official docs, Telegram changes not only the permissions that are set, but also sets all the others to False. However, since not documented, this behaviour may change unbeknown to PTB.
