How do I create a new Channel?

Hi,
Could you please let me know if there is a way or if i can create a channel.

If you want to just create a new channel and forget;

await client.SendRequestAsync<bool>(new TLRequestCreateChannel
{
    Title = "Epic Channel!",
    About = "This channel is created by TLSharp.",
    Broadcast = false,
    Megagroup = false
});

If you want to create a new channel and interact with it;

var update = await client.SendRequestAsync<TLUpdates>(new TLRequestCreateChannel
{
    Title = "Epic Channel!",
    About = "This channel is created by TLSharp.",
    Broadcast = false,
    Megagroup = false
});

var channel = (TLChannel)update.Chats.Last();

Hello, Thank you so much for your response. I was looking for a code which I can use to update the Channel profile picture. Please let me know if there is an option for the same. Regards, Manju

You have various of options but this is the easiest one; await client.ExecuteAsync(new TdApi.SendMessage { ChatId = channel.Id, InputMessageContent = new TdApi.InputMessageContent.InputMessagePhoto { Photo = new TdApi.InputFile.InputFileLocal { Path = "photo.png" // This is the path to your photo. } } }); If you want to interact with your newly sent photo, you should do it like this; var sentMessage = await client.ExecuteAsync(new TdApi.SendMessage { ChatId = channel.Id, InputMessageContent = new TdApi.InputMessageContent.InputMessagePhoto { Photo = new TdApi.InputFile.InputFileLocal { Path = "photo.png" } } }); — You are receiving this because you authored the thread.

Hello there! Well, I've thought you wanted to send a photo to the channel but then I've realised that I've read your message wrong. Sadly I don't have any ideas about that. There is a TLRequestEditChatPhoto class but I don't know if it's the right class for you and how should you use it. Take a look at here.
