Hello, i am developping a bot and i want to link it with telegram. I want to use custom button in order to send location(venue) , i saw in the documentation that its possible with the custom arguments but there is no more information about how to use it or examples. It will be great if someone could help me with an example !
I don’t have example but where you get stuck? Do you get anything to work?
not yet
i want a button to send location in the documentation they give this for example
utter_giraffe_sticker:
- text: Here's my giraffe sticker!
custom:
sticker: "https://github.com/TelegramBots/book/raw/master/src/docs/sticker-fred.webp"
but nothing for location

Getting Started With RASA-ChatBot And Telegram | by Manaan Ansari | Medium
unfortunatly no I want to send a button for which when the user presses it, sends me its location. I thought that the custom argument in the rasa documentation allowed to do it, am I right?
by chance do you know how to implement it with rasa ?
Not directly, it looks like you need a custom actions for this. I can try later, also I have never tried Rasa telegram connection so will try it too
ok let me know, i will search on my side too rasa integration with telegram is very easy but , having some buttons is complicated more for custom
