$telegramOptions = (new TelegramOptions())
    ->chatId('@symfonynotifierdev')
    ->parseMode('MarkdownV2')
    ->disableWebPagePreview(true)
    ->disableNotification(true)
    ->replyMarkup((new InlineKeyboardMarkup())
        ->inlineKeyboard([
            (new InlineKeyboardButton('Visit symfony.com'))
                ->url('https://symfony.com/'),

$chatMessage = new ChatMessage('Are you really sure?');
$telegramOptions = (new TelegramOptions())
    ->chatId($chatId)
    ->edit($messageId) // extracted from callback payload or SentMessage
    ->replyMarkup((new InlineKeyboardMarkup())
        ->inlineKeyboard([
            (new InlineKeyboardButton('Absolutely'))->callbackData('yes'),
        ])
    );

use Symfony\Component\Notifier\Message\ChatMessage;

$chatMessage = new ChatMessage('Thank you!');
$telegramOptions = (new TelegramOptions())
    ->chatId($chatId)
    ->answerCallbackQuery(
        callbackQueryId: '12345', // extracted from callback
        showAlert: true,
        cacheTime: 1,
