if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {

}
include 'madeline.php';
$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();
$Updates = $MadelineProto->messages->sendMedia(silent: Bool, background: Bool, clear_draft: Bool, noforwards: Bool, update_stickersets_order: Bool, peer: InputPeer, reply_to_msg_id: int, top_msg_id: int, media: InputMedia, message: 'string', reply_markup: ReplyMarkup, entities: [MessageEntity, MessageEntity], parse_mode: 'string', schedule_date: int, send_as: InputPeer, );

You can provide bot API reply_markup objects here.

Set parseMode to Markdown to enable markown AND html parsing of the message.
