# `ExGram.Model.Document`
[🔗](https://github.com/rockneurotiko/ex_gram/blob/0.64.0/lib/ex_gram.ex#L3821)

This object represents a general file (as opposed to photos, voice messages and audio files).

Check the [documentation of this model on Telegram Bot API](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#document)

- `file_id`: Identifier for this file, which can be used to download or reuse the file
- `file_unique_id`: Unique identifier for this file, which is supposed to be the same over time and for different bots. Can't be used to download or reuse the file.
- `thumbnail (optional)`: Optional. Document thumbnail as defined by the sender
- `file_name (optional)`: Optional. Original filename as defined by the sender
- `mime_type (optional)`: Optional. MIME type of the file as defined by the sender
- `file_size (optional)`: Optional. File size in bytes. It can be bigger than 2^31 and some programming languages may have difficulty/silent defects in interpreting it. But it has at most 52 significant bits, so a signed 64-bit integer or double-precision float type are safe for storing this value.

# `t`

  file_size: integer() | nil,
  file_unique_id: String.t(),
  mime_type: String.t() | nil,
