|check\_limit|[Bool](../types/Bool.md) | If set and the user has reached the limit of owned public [channels/supergroups/geogroups](https://core.telegram.org/api/channel), instead of returning the channel list one of the specified [errors](#possible-errors) will be returned.<br>Useful to check if a new public channel can indeed be created, even before asking the user to enter a channel username to use in [channels.checkUsername](../methods/channels.checkUsername.md)/[channels.updateUsername](../methods/channels.updateUsername.md). | Optional|

```php
if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();

$messages.Chats = $MadelineProto->channels->getAdminedPublicChannels(['by_location' => Bool, 'check_limit' => Bool, ]);
