This convenience method does the same as repeatedly calling :meth:`~Client.get_history` in a loop, thus saving you from the hassle of setting up boilerplate code. It is useful for getting the whole chat history with a single call. Parameters: chat_id (``int`` | ``str``): Unique identifier (int) or username (str) of the target chat. For your personal cloud (Saved Messages) you can simply use "me" or "self". For a contact that exists in your Telegram address book you can use his phone number (str). limit (``int``, *optional*): Limits the number of messages to be retrieved. By default, no limit is applied and all messages are returned. offset (``int``, *optional*): Sequential number of the first message to be returned.. Negative values are also accepted and become useful in case you set offset_id or offset_date. offset_id (``int``, *optional*): Identifier of the first message to be returned. offset_date (``int``, *optional*): Pass a date in Unix time as offset to retrieve only older messages starting from that date. reverse (``bool``, *optional*): Pass True to retrieve the messages in reversed order (from older to most recent). Returns: ``Generator``: A generator yielding :obj:`Message` objects. Example: .. code-block:: python for message in app.iter_history("pyrogram"): print(message.text) """ offset_id = offset_id or (1 if reverse else 0) current = 0 total = limit or (1 << 31) - 1 limit = min(100, total) while True: messages = self.get_history( chat_id=chat_id, limit=limit, offset=offset, offset_id=offset_id, offset_date=offset_date, reverse=reverse ) if not messages: return offset_id = messages[-1].message_id + (1 if reverse else 0) for message in messages: yield message current += 1 if current >= total: return
