Question 59489 in Telegram API Question posted in
A comprehensive official documentation can be found here.

I'm having trouble running the python-telegram-bot Library sample code – Telegram API

I’m trying to use the example codes from the repository’s beginners guide and the ready-made examples:
wiki&
examples

I can’t run them because of some classes that can’t be imported. I’m using Visual Studio and when debugging, find the following error

from telegram.ext import (
    Application,
    CallbackContext,
    CommandHandler,
    ConversationHandler,
    MessageHandler,
    filters,
)

gives this error

cannot import name 'Application' from 'telegram.ext'

Was it my mistake? I uninstalled and installed using pip, the error keeps showing up

    I think you haven’t installed it correctly .

    try installing it with setup.py in order to do that just follow these steps

    1- git clone "repository link"

    2- cd python-telegram-bot

    3- py setup.py install or python setup.py install

    Your code has no problem.

    You are installing the alpha version which has a lot of changes.
    To fix this issue:

    1. Uninstall PTB v20
    2. Install latest PTB stable version (which is version 13) using: pip install python-telegram-bot
    3. use this version of documentation for a tutorial on how to write your first bot.
