How to get reactions to messages?

[autoantwort]

I want to get reactions to my messages and use the following code:

const TelegramBot = require('node-telegram-bot-api');
const TOKEN = '***';

const bot = new TelegramBot(TOKEN, {
    polling: {
        params: {
            allowed_updates: ["message", "message_reaction"],
        }
    }
});

console.log(TelegramBot.messageTypes)

bot.on('message', (msg) => {
    bot.sendMessage(msg.chat.id, 'Try reacting to this message!');
});

bot.on('message_reaction', (reaction) => {
    console.log('Reaction received (message_reaction):', reaction);
});
bot.on("message_reaction_count", async (reaction) => {
    console.log("message_reaction_count", reaction);
});
console.log('Bot started with polling enabled');

But when i send the bot a message and react to it I don't get a update. Do you have a idea what the problem could be?

I don't know for some reason node-telegram-bot-api can not handle this properly.

Just hit this link from your browser (only once), and after that you will get updates on message reactions
https://api.telegram.org/bot<YOUR_BOT_TOKEN>/getUpdates?allowed_updates=["update_id","message","edited_message","channel_post","edited_channel_post","inline_query","chosen_inline_result","callback_query","shipping_query","pre_checkout_query","poll","poll_answer","my_chat_member","chat_member"]
