Node-telegram-bot-api: How to hide or delete inline buttons?

[ecdeveloper]

Is there a way to delete/hide/remove the inline buttons after user clicks it? Below is the code I use to send the message with inline buttons:

bot.sendMessage(msg.chat.id, 'Yes or no?', {
      reply_markup: {
        inline_keyboard: [[
          {
            text: `Yes`,
            callback_data: '1'
          },
          {
            text: 'No',
            callback_data: '0'
          }
        ]]
      }
    })

If I do an attempt to call editMessageReplyMarkup with an empty reply_markup - it just won't let me do so, return a 400 status code and error saying message can't be edited. Telegram docs say:

Please note, that it is currently only possible to edit messages without reply_markup or with inline keyboards.

So I'm not entirely sure how to achieve my goal. Any thoughts?

Just add:

bot.on('callback_query', (msg) => {
  bot.sendMessage(_.id, `Selected '${msg.data}'`);
  bot.deleteMessage(_.id, msg.message.message_id);
});`

@ecdeveloper any way to do this. I want to edit entire message (inline keyboard and text message).
How @Telegram botFather do this. upon click of buttons it change goback and forward etc.

@ivomarsan Deleting a message and then sending a new message is not a good idea.

Here is what I done for this. I have done it using the editMessage API with a reply_markup given below

getTelegramReplyMarkup() {

        var opts = {
            reply_markup: {
                inline_keyboard: []
            }
        }

        return opts;
    }

function editMessageText(text_message, chatId, msgId, reply_markup) {

    console.log("chatId", chatId);
    console.log("msgId", msgId);


    var markup = {
        chat_id: chatId,
        message_id: parseInt(msgId),
        reply_markup: reply_markup
    }

    console.log("reply_markup", JSON.stringify(markup));

    telegramBot.editMessageText(text_message, markup).then(function (response) {
        console.log("editMessageText response", response);
    }).catch(function (err) {
        console.log("editMessageText err", err);
    })
}

here is how I have called the above functions

editMessageText(STRINGS.TASK_CANCELED_BY + " @" + callbackQuery.from.username, callbackQuery.message.chat.id, callbackQuery.message.message_id, utils.getTelegramConfirmedMarkup())

Can you give a concrete example?
