Hi, I have a telegram_bot set up connected to a group. I would like to be able to scan group messages for keywords, but I am not getting any telegram_text events from the group.
Whenever I send a command to the group (anything starting with /) I see a telegram_command event fire. Whenever I send just normal text to the group, I don’t get a telegram_text event. However, when I send regular text directly to the bot, I get a telegram_text event.
Does the telegram_text event only fire when talking directly to the bot?
this is my relevant telegram_bot config:
telegram_bot:
- platform: polling
api_key: !secret telegram_key
allowed_chat_ids:
- !secret telegram_id_me
- !secret telegram_id_family_group
