### Parameters:

### MadelineProto Example ([now async for huge speed and parallelism!](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/docs/ASYNC.html)):
```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();
$Vector_of_messages.SearchCounter = $MadelineProto->messages->getSearchCounters(['peer' => InputPeer, 'filters' => [MessagesFilter, MessagesFilter], ]);
```
Or, if you're into Lua:
```lua
Vector_of_messages.SearchCounter = messages.getSearchCounters({peer=InputPeer, filters={MessagesFilter}, })
```
