How to use getUpdates after setWebhook in Telegram Bot API

Question

I use setWebhook for my telegram-bot and now I need to use getUpdates. I have read the docs, and they say, that I can use only one method.

The problem is, that I have in console:

{"ok":false,"error_code":409,"description":"Error: Conflict: another webhook is active"}

So the question is, how to UNSET webhook and use getUpdates?

Answer 1

In a browser send the following request:

https://api.telegram.org/bot655390656:bhFS50...ff3zO4/setwebhook

Answer 2

as mentioned in Telegram bot api documentations you just need to pass empty string to url parameter.

> base_url = 'https://api.telegram.org/bot' + TOKEN + '/'
> data = {"url": ""}
> requests.post(base_url + 'setWebhook', data=data)
