Properties

fileId

val fileId: String

Identifier for this file, which can be used to download or reuse the file

filePath

val filePath: String? = null

Optional. File path. Use https://api.telegram.org/file/bot/ to get the file.

fileSize

val fileSize: Long? = null

Optional. File size in bytes. It can be bigger than 2^31 and some programming languages may have difficulty/silent defects in interpreting it. But it has at most 52 significant bits, so a signed 64-bit integer or double-precision float type are safe for storing this value.

fileUniqueId

val fileUniqueId: String

Unique identifier for this file, which is supposed to be the same over time and for different bots. Can't be used to download or reuse the file.
