Upload media without sending it

[Nikeware]

Hello all,

How to with tgbot-cpp library upload media (photo or video) without actually sending it to the chat? I see that core API from Telegram itself have some appropriate method "uploadMedia", but I don't found it in tgbot-cpp.

Thanks!

messages.uploadMedia belongs to the MTProto client API, not the HTTP Bot API wrapped by tgbot-cpp. Bot API files are uploaded as part of a send/edit operation; there is no standalone upload-only method. Cache the returned file_id for reuse.
