I keep getting PEER_ID_INVALID error!

-------------------------------------------
|

I want to migrate my account from DCX to DCY.

The error in question is ``[400 PEER_ID_INVALID]``, and could mean several
|
||||
things:
|
||||
This question is often asked by people who find their account(s) always being connected to DC1 - USA (for example), but
|
||||
are connecting from a place far away (e.g DC4 - Europe), thus resulting in slower interactions when using the API
|
||||
because of the great physical distance between the user and its associated DC.
|
||||
|
||||
When registering an account for the first time, is up to Telegram to decide which DC the new user is going to be created
|
||||
in, based on the phone number origin.
|
||||
|
||||
Even though Telegram `documentations <https://core.telegram.org/api/datacenter#user-migration>`_ state the server might
|
||||
decide to automatically migrate a user in case of prolonged usages from a distant, unusual location and albeit this
|
||||
mechanism is also `confirmed <https://twitter.com/telegram/status/427131446655197184>`_ to exist by Telegram itself,
|
||||
it's currently not possible to have your account migrated, in any way, simply because the feature was once planned but
|
||||
not yet implemented.

The error in question is ``[400 PEER_ID_INVALID]``, and could mean several things:
|
||||
|
||||
- The chat id you tried to use is simply wrong, double check it.
|
||||
- The chat id refers to a group or channel you are not a member of.
