## Method: messages.sendBroadcast
[Back to methods index](index.md)
### Parameters:
| Name | Type | Required |
|----------|---------------|----------|
|contacts|Array of [InputUser](../types/InputUser.md) | Yes|
|message|[string](../types/string.md) | Yes|
|media|[InputMedia](../types/InputMedia.md) | Optional|
### Return type: [messages\_StatedMessages](../types/messages_StatedMessages.md)
### Can bots use this method: **YES**
### Example:
```
$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API();
$MadelineProto->session = 'mySession.madeline';
if (isset($token)) { // Login as a bot
$MadelineProto->bot_login($token);
}
if (isset($number)) { // Login as a user
$MadelineProto->phone_login($number);
$code = readline('Enter the code you received: '); // Or do this in two separate steps in an HTTP API
$MadelineProto->complete_phone_login($code);
}
$messages_StatedMessages = $MadelineProto->messages->sendBroadcast(['contacts' => [InputUser], 'message' => 'string', 'media' => InputMedia, ]);
```
Or, if you're using the [PWRTelegram HTTP API](https://pwrtelegram.xyz):
### As a bot:
POST/GET to `https://api.pwrtelegram.xyz/botTOKEN/madeline`
Parameters:
* method - messages.sendBroadcast
* params - `{"contacts": [InputUser], "message": "string", "media": InputMedia, }`
### As a user:
POST/GET to `https://api.pwrtelegram.xyz/userTOKEN/messages.sendBroadcast`
Parameters:
contacts - Json encoded array of InputUser
message - Json encoded string
media - Json encoded InputMedia
Or, if you're into Lua:
```
messages_StatedMessages = messages.sendBroadcast({contacts={InputUser}, message='string', media=InputMedia, })
```
## Return value
If the length of the provided message is bigger than 4096, the message will be split in chunks and the method will be called multiple times, with the same parameters (except for the message), and an array of [messages\_StatedMessages](../types/messages_StatedMessages.md) will be returned instead.
