How to get the right telegram channel id?

Question

• If I get user_id, by contacts.resolveUsername#bf0131c and search by string channel, then I get user_id = 0x0827ac18

If send it to messages.getFullChat#3b831c66, then receive error PEER_ID_INVALID.

If send if to users.getFullUser#ca30a5b1, then I get error USER_ID_INVALID.

• If I search string channel using contacts.search#11f812d8, then I get two user with username ChannelBot and Channel_Bot, but not get with user or channel name channel.
