	Duration            int         `json:"duration,omitempty"`             // Duration of sent animation in seconds
	Width               int         `json:"width,omitempty"`                // Animation width
	Height              int         `json:"height,omitempty"`               // Animation height
	Thumb               interface{} `json:"thumb,omitempty"`                // Thumbnail of the file sent; can be ignored if thumbnail generation for the file is supported server-side. The thumbnail should be in JPEG format and less than 200 kB in size. A thumbnail‘s width and height should not exceed 320. Ignored if the file is not uploaded using multipart/form-data. Thumbnails can’t be reused and can be only uploaded as a new file, so you can pass “attach://<file_attach_name>” if the thumbnail was uploaded using multipart/form-data under <file_attach_name>.

	DisableNotification bool        `json:"disable_notification,omitempty"` // Sends the message silently. Users will receive a notification with no sound.
	ReplyToMessageID    int         `json:"reply_to_message_id,omitempty"`  // If the message is a reply, ID of the original message
	ReplyMarkup         interface{} `json:"reply_markup,omitempty"`         // Additional interface options. A JSON-serialized object for an inline keyboard, custom reply keyboard, instructions to remove reply keyboard or to force a reply from the user.
