Usage Examples

Basic Usage

/export
/import
/reset

For detailed command usage, refer to the commands table above.

Required Permissions

  • /export — Requires Admin (RequireUserAdmin + RequireBotAdmin). Rate limited: 1 per 5 minutes.
  • /import — Requires Group Creator (RequireUserOwner). Rate limited: 1 per 10 minutes.
  • /reset — Requires Group Creator (RequireUserOwner). Rate limited: 1 per hour.

Confirmation Flow

Both /import and /reset require explicit confirmation before executing:

  1. After parsing the backup file (or reset modules), the bot shows a message listing which modules will be affected.
  2. An inline keyboard with Confirm/Cancel buttons is attached:
    • Confirm — Executes the operation immediately.
    • Cancel — Cleans up pending state and aborts.
  3. Only the group creator can click either button; non-creators see an alert.

Version Compatibility

The current backup format is 1.1. Imports also accept legacy 1.0 files while preserving notes settings and user warning rows that 1.0 did not export. Unsupported versions are rejected before the confirmation step.
