```
if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

// !!! This API id/API hash combination will not work !!!
// !!! You must get your own @ my.telegram.org !!!
$api_id = 0;
$api_hash = '';

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline', ['app_info' => ['api_id' => $api_id, 'api_hash' => $api_hash]]);
$MadelineProto->start();

$Bool = $MadelineProto->messages->setInlineBotResults(['gallery' => Bool, 'private' => Bool, 'query_id' => long, 'results' => [InputBotInlineResult, InputBotInlineResult], 'cache_time' => int, 'next_offset' => 'string', 'switch_pm' => InlineBotSwitchPM, ]);
```

### [PWRTelegram HTTP API](https://pwrtelegram.xyz) example (NOT FOR MadelineProto):

### As a bot:

POST/GET to `https://api.pwrtelegram.xyz/botTOKEN/madeline`

Parameters:

* method - messages.setInlineBotResults
* params - `{"gallery": Bool, "private": Bool, "query_id": long, "results": [InputBotInlineResult], "cache_time": int, "next_offset": "string", "switch_pm": InlineBotSwitchPM, }`



### As a user:

POST/GET to `https://api.pwrtelegram.xyz/userTOKEN/messages.setInlineBotResults`

Parameters:

gallery - Json encoded Bool

private - Json encoded Bool

query_id - Json encoded long

results - Json encoded  array of InputBotInlineResult

cache_time - Json encoded int

switch_pm - Json encoded InlineBotSwitchPM




Or, if you're into Lua:

```
Bool = messages.setInlineBotResults({gallery=Bool, private=Bool, query_id=long, results={InputBotInlineResult}, cache_time=int, next_offset='string', switch_pm=InlineBotSwitchPM, })
```
