Error API_ID_INVALID, but the code is correct

[claytonbnu]

This is the configuration of https://my.telegram.org/apps.

This is the code, the appId and apiHash is same of configurantion in the https://my.telegram.org/apps:

using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using TLSharp.Core;

namespace IntegracaoTelegram
{
    class Program
    {        
        const string phoneNumber = "+554799111170";
        const int apiId = 100283;
        const string apiHash = "e1bcXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX908a";

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Service bot = new Service(apiId, apiHash);
            Authenticate(bot).Wait();

            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(System.Threading.Timeout.Infinite);
        }
           
       static async Task Authenticate(Service bot)
         {
             await bot.Connect();
             await bot.Authenticate(phoneNumber);
         }
    }

    public sealed class Service
    {
        private TelegramClient client;
        private ISessionStore store;
        public Service(int apiId, string apiHash)
        {
            store = new FileSessionStore();
            this.client = new TelegramClient(apiId, apiHash, store);
        }

        public async Task Connect()
        {
            await this.client.ConnectAsync();
        }

        public async Task Authenticate(String phoneNumber)
        {
            var hash = await client.SendCodeRequestAsync(phoneNumber);                     

            Console.WriteLine("Inform the received code from Telegram: ");
            var code = Console.ReadLine(); 

            var user = await client.MakeAuthAsync(phoneNumber, hash, code);

            Console.WriteLine("The UserID is: {0}",user.id);
        }
    }
}

And this is the Error!

What did I do wrong?

[samuelg78]

I also experienced the same issue.

[samuelg78]

Seems like all new numbers will have this errors due to recently updates of Telegram.

[knocte]

Please post the exception, not screenshots. The exception is the text you get when you do ex.ToString()

[samuelg78]

The exception is "API_ID_INVALID"

[knocte]

That's not an exception, that's an error code.

[nazmotka]

Experiencing the same problem for a newly registered dev account. I haven't observed this issue using another account, generated for about two weeks ago. The only noticeable difference between these accounts is that API_ID for the new account contains 6 digits, but previous one - 5.

[nazmotka]

That's not an exception, that's an error code.

If you are expecting a stack trace, please see below:

[knocte]

To be strict, a stacktrace is only one part of the exception. ex.ToString() however includes more things, such as: exception's message, innerException.tostring() (recursively until finding a null innerException), and the exception's stacktrace.

[nazmotka]

ex.ToString() result

[samuelg78]

Hi, able to resolve the issue?

[astuteficus]

I have the same with freshly registered ApiId. Does anybody have it working?

[astuteficus]

Works with another ApiId (obtained a long time ago). So it's Telegram's issue

[samuelg78]

How to report to telegram? The support is not responding.

[samuelg78]

Hi anyone got reply from telegram support?

[astuteficus]

I wrote them too several days ago. No answer.

[samuelg78]

There's a serious issue with the support.

[HemmatSharp]

I have same problem with api_id and get no response from telegram support.

[jak65]

I have same problem too

[nazmotka]

More than a week have passed since I reported to support (and also to the official support community), but I still haven't received any response.

[StrangePers]

I wrote them 5 times for the last 3 months with different issues and from several accounts. They never answered.

[samuelg78]

They had just replied that they fixed the problem.

[nazmotka]

Yes, I confirm the issue is fixed
