Example

PHP — Call replaceStickerInSet on Botlify Cloud
<?php
// ── Botlify Cloud .env — auto-injected, never hardcode secrets ──
$BOT_TOKEN     = getenv('BOT_TOKEN');     // Telegram bot token from @BotFather
$ADMIN_CHAT_ID = getenv('ADMIN_CHAT_ID'); // Your numeric admin Telegram user ID
$BOT_USERNAME  = getenv('BOT_USERNAME');  // Bot username without @

$resp = bot('replaceStickerInSet', [
    'user_id' => $userId,
    'name' => 'Hello from Botlify Cloud!',
    'old_sticker' => 'value',
    'sticker' => 'value',
]);

if ($resp['ok'] ?? false) {
    $result = $resp['result']; // handle the response
}
Botlify Cloud Runtime
Credentials are auto-injected in .env — always load them with getenv(): BOT_TOKEN, ADMIN_CHAT_ID, BOT_USERNAME. Main database: database.db (SQLite, WAL mode). Runtime errors: error.log. Quick test: send to $ADMIN_CHAT_ID. Full details: Runtime Reference.
