Hi everyone, I recently started using make and I have a question. I want to create a telegram bot for technical support. I have created my api assistants (gpt-4o mini) and uploaded a database for it to answer. I created a script on make, but it only answers text questions. How can I make my api assistants also recognize pictures and answer.  
What I want: user sends a screenshot of an error bot recognizes it searches the database and gives an answer.  
On [https://platform.openai.com/](https://platform.openai.com/) I was able to achieve this result.
