# Getting info about chats
There are various methods that can be used to fetch info about chats, based on bot API id, tg-cli ID, Peer, User, Chat objects.
* [Full chat info with full list of participants](#getPwrChat-now-fully-async)
* [Full chat info](#getFullInfo-now-fully-async)
* [Reduced chat info (very fast)](#getInfo-now-fully-async)
* [Just the chat ID (extremely fast)](#get_id-now-fully-async)
## getPwrChat ([now fully async!](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/docs/ASYNC.html))
```php
$pwr_chat = yield $MadelineProto->getPwrChat(-100214891824);
foreach ($pwr_chat['participants'] as $participant) {
\danog\MadelineProto\Logger::log($participant);
}
```
Use `getPwrChat` to get full chat info, including the full list of members, see [here for the parameters and the result](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/getPwrChat.html).
