Does anyone know a way to get round the setting in telegram that won't allow bot to bot commands.
see Bots FAQ
I believe bots are not allowed to talk to each other security measure
That's why I asked the question.
Maybe create another user account and use that to pass messages between bots using node red, Changing chatid's. Possibly using http request api.
Sorry, yes, that would work within node red but, I should have said, I'm trying to send the command to an external bot. I've tried channels but the external bot doesn't seem to want to accept commands over a channel, even from an android phone. It will over groups.
I don't see a way round this other than stated above, sorry
[edit] i did see this GitHub - zerobias/telegram-mtproto: Telegram client api (MTProto) library and this GitHub - LonamiWebs/Telethon: Pure Python 3 MTProto API Telegram client library, for bots too!

Other than handling the bot-to-bot dialogs in Node-RED or some other external service and doing so in a group rather than direct to the bot.
Thank you, that second link looks interesting.
Works perfectly, thanks for the help.
