This wiki page is meant to be a place where everyone can find and contribute examples on how to use Telethon.

It is very important that your system time is on sync! Telegram won't send a reply back at all if your system time is too ahead of the current time, or too behind. This will most likely be the cause for the following errors:

BlockingIOError: [Errno 11] Resource temporarily unavailable
BlockingIOError: [Errno 35] Resource temporarily unavailable
TimeoutError: The read operation exceeded the timeout.

Please check this out before opening an issue. Thanks to issue 172 for the debug level log.

The online documentation for all available requests, types and constructors is available online at https://lonamiwebs.github.io/Telethon/.

Possible problems

If you ever receive a PEER_FLOOD error or aren't able to perform certain requests, it might mean that your account is limited, and there's not much Telethon can do about this. Talk to @SpamBot for more information, or refer to the spam FAQ.
