invokeWithLayer18#1c900537 {X:Type} query:!X = X;

Layer 17

Added new events for recording and uploading media, selecting contacts and locations to share.

Read status for multimedia (messages containing messageMediaVideo or messageMediaAudio) was moved to the new method messages.readMessageContents. In case read_contents is not passed or messages.readHistory is used with an older layer, messages will be marked as read in the traditional way.

Schema changes

  • Added new type SendMessageAction for user actions aside from typing (recording, uploading media, etc.). It is used in updates updateUserTyping, updateChatUserTyping, in the method messages.setTyping, and in the new encrypted service message decryptedMessageActionTyping.
  • unread and out parameters in the constructors of the Message type were joined to form the new flags parameter, containing a flag mask.
  • Added new method messages.readMessageContents, to be called once the user listened to a voice message or watched a video.
  • Added parameters for end-to-end encrypted messages in_seq_no, out_seq_no and ttl.
  • Added mime_type field to secret chat audio and video constructors.
