Attributes:

NameTypeRequiredDescription
single_useBoolOptionalRequests clients to hide the keyboard as soon as it’s been used. The keyboard will still be available, but clients will automatically display the usual letter-keyboard in the chat – the user can press a special button in the input field to see the custom keyboard again.
selectiveBoolOptionalUse this parameter if you want to show the keyboard to specific users only. Targets: 1) users that are @mentioned in the text of the Message object; 2) if the bot’s message is a reply (has reply_to_message_id), sender of the original message.
Example: A user requests to change the bot’s language, bot replies to the request with a keyboard to select the new language. Other users in the group don’t see the keyboard.
placeholderstringOptionalThe placeholder to be shown in the input field when the keyboard is active; 1-64 characters.

Type: ReplyMarkup

Example:

$replyKeyboardForceReply = ['_' => 'replyKeyboardForceReply', 'single_use' => Bool, 'selective' => Bool, 'placeholder' => 'string'];
