</a></div>
<p>Beyond sending commands in private messages or groups, users can interact with your bot via <a href="/bots/api#inline-mode"><strong>inline queries</strong></a>. If inline queries are enabled, users can call your bot by typing its username and a query in the <strong>text input field</strong> in <strong>any</strong> chat. The query is sent to your bot in an update. This way, people can request content from your bot in <strong>any</strong> of their chats, groups, or channels without sending any messages at all.</p>
<div><center>
<a href="/file/811140995/1/I-wubuXAnzk/2e39739d0ac6bd5458" target="_blank"><img src="/file/811140995/1/I-wubuXAnzk/2e39739d0ac6bd5458" title="Users can type the bots username in any chat, then type a query without sending any messages" style="width:300px; padding:10px 0px 10px"/></a></center>
<br/>
</div>
<p>To enable this option, send the <code>/setinline</code> command to <a href="https://telegram.me/botfather">@BotFather</a> and provide the placeholder text that the user will see in the input field after typing your bots name.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>See the <a href="/bots/api#inline-mode">Bot API Manual</a> for the relevant methods and objects.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="inline-results" href="#inline-results"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Inline results</h3>
<p>Inline bots support <strong>all types of content</strong> available in Telegram (20 in all). They are capable of sending stickers, videos, music, locations, documents and more. </p>
<div><center>
<a href="/file/811140994/2/fvw-q_CRaBQ/c618325e119b0a8229" target="_blank"><img src="/file/811140994/2/fvw-q_CRaBQ/c618325e119b0a8229" title="All kinds of inline content" style="width: 295px; padding: 10px 20px;" /></a></center>
<br/>
</div>
<p>Clients can display the results with vertical or horizontal scrolling, depending on the type of content:</p>
<div><center>
<a href="/file/811140049/2/M2mzqjZoiUw/2d872f0df2aed182d6" target="_blank"><img src="/file/811140049/2/M2mzqjZoiUw/2d872f0df2aed182d6" title="Vertical scrolling" style="width: 295px; padding: 0px 20px;" /></a>
<a href="/file/811140592/2/P4-tFhmBsCg/57418af08f1a252d45" target="_blank"><img src="/file/811140592/2/P4-tFhmBsCg/57418af08f1a252d45" title="Horizontal scrolling" style="width: 295px; padding: 0px 20px;" /></a>
</center>
<br/>
</div>
<p>As soon as the user taps on an item, it&#39;s immediately sent to the recipient, and the input field is cleared.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="switching-inline-pm-modes" href="#switching-inline-pm-modes"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Switching inline/PM modes</h3>
<p>Some inline bots can benefit from an initial setup process, like connecting them to an account on an external service (e.g., YouTube). We&#39;ve added an easy way of switching between the private chat with a bot and whatever chat the user wants to share inline results in.</p>
<div><center>
<a href="/file/811140951/1/FD93gAgDVDI/8d8bdd16e6a7b40c12" target="_blank"><img src="/file/811140951/1/FD93gAgDVDI/8d8bdd16e6a7b40c12" title="Switch to PM button" style="width: 295px; padding: 10px 20px;" /></a></center><br/>
</div>
<p>You can display a special &#39;Switch to PM&#39; button above the inline results (or instead of them). This button will open a private chat with the bot and pass a parameter of your choosing, so that you can prompt the user for the relevant setup actions. Once done, you can use an inline keyboard with a <a href="/bots/api#inlinekeyboardmarkup"><em>switch_inline_query</em></a> button to send the user back to the original chat. </p>
<p><strong>Sample bots</strong><br><a href="https://telegram.me/youtube">@youtube</a> Shows a &#39;Sign in to YouTube&#39; button, then suggests personalized results.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><a href="/bots/api#answerinlinequery">Manual: Switch to PM</a></p>
</blockquote>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="location-based-results" href="#location-based-results"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Location-based results</h3>
<p>Inline bots can request location data from their users. Use the <code>/setinlinegeo</code> command with <a href="https://telegram.me/botfather">@BotFather</a> to enable this. Your bot will ask the user for permission to access their location whenever they send an inline request.</p>
<p><strong>Sample bot</strong><br><a href="https://telegram.me/foursquare">@foursquare</a> This bot will ask for permission to access the user&#39;s location, then provide geo-targeted results.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="spreading-virally" href="#spreading-virally"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Spreading virally</h3>
<p>Messages sent with the help of your bot will show its username next to the sender&#39;s name.</p>
<div><center>
<a href="/file/811140680/2/P3E5RVFzGZ8/5ae6f9c9610b0cbace" target="_blank"><img src="/file/811140680/2/P3E5RVFzGZ8/5ae6f9c9610b0cbace" title="Gif shared via a bot" style="width: 295px; padding: 0px 20px;" /></a>
<a href="/file/811140016/2/2b_B7nq9OQA/161b06d38843930fe5" target="_blank"><img src="/file/811140016/2/2b_B7nq9OQA/161b06d38843930fe5" title="Inline bot suggestions" style="width: 295px; padding: 0px 20px;" /></a>
<br/><br/>
</center></div>
<p>When a user taps on the bot username in the message header, the mention is automatically inserted into the input field. Entering the <code>@</code> symbol in the input field brings up a list of suggestions, featuring recently used inline bots.</p>
<h4><a class="anchor" name="collecting-feedback" href="#collecting-feedback"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Collecting feedback</h4>
<p>To know which of the provided results your users are sending to their chat partners, send <a href="https://telegram.me/botfather">@Botfather</a> the <code>/setinlinefeedback</code> command. With this enabled, you will receive updates on the results chosen by your users.</p>
<p>Please note that this can create load issues for popular bots you may receive more results than actual requests due to caching (see the <em>cache_time</em> parameter in <a href="/bots/api#answerinlinequery">answerInlineQuery</a>). For these cases, we recommend adjusting the probability setting to receive 1/10, 1/100 or 1/1000 of the results.</p>
