'bot.telegram.getChat does not return the message of a specific user

I am trying to setup my bot so that it will 'listen' to a specific user and print out any incoming message.

I have already setup a bot in telegram using BotFather. This is what I have so far

const { Telegraf } = require('telegraf')
const bot = new Telegraf('my_bot_token_here');

bot.telegram.getChat(Chat_Id).then(function(chat) {
  console.log('chat info', chat);
});

The object does not contain the user message.

Any advice on this is appreciated.

Yes, absolutely. You need to check the 'from' field in the message before executing your logic.
