How to make a simple inline Bot using tgbot-cpp?

[Amirhan-Taipovjan-Greatest-I]

Hello!

I want to make inline Feature for My own Bot, but I actually can't figure out how to do this...
My Goal is to make a inline Feature where User can write down some text and get another text as output after Confirming.

I've tried to search in there or somewhere else in the Internet... anything that can help Me, but for C++ I didn't find it...

Thanks for the Answer in advance!

First enable inline mode for the bot in @Botfather. Then handle InlineQuery, create an article result, and pass it to answerInlineQuery:

bot.getEvents().onInlineQuery([&bot](TgBot::InlineQuery::Ptr query) {
    auto text = std::make_shared<TgBot::InputTextMessageContent>();
    text->messageText = "You entered: " + query->query;

    auto content = std::make_shared<TgBot::InputMessageContent>();
    content->value = text;

    auto article = std::make_shared<TgBot::InlineQueryResultArticle>();
    article->id = "text-result";
    article->title = "Send result";
    article->inputMessageContent = content;

    auto result = std::make_shared<TgBot::InlineQueryResult>();
    result->value = article;

    bot.getApi().answerInlineQuery(query->id, {result}, 0, true);
});

The user invokes it as @YourBot some text. Telegram shows the article, and selecting it sends You entered: some text. There is no separate confirmation update after selection.
