Describes a group call.
If the min flag is set, this is a partial (min) constructor: only a subset of its fields contains up-to-date information, and it must be merged into a previously cached non-min constructor as described below. If no full (non-min) constructor for this call was cached previously, the min constructor must be discarded.
When min is set, the following mandatory fields may be used: id, access_hash, participants_count and version. In addition, only the following conditional fields may be used if present, subject to the usual version check:
conferencertmp_streamlisteners_hiddentitlemessages_enabledrecord_start_date and record_video_activeschedule_datesend_paid_messages_starsWhen min is set, the following fields must be ignored, keeping the values from the previously cached non-min constructor:
join_mutedcan_change_join_mutedschedule_start_subscribedcan_start_videocreatorcan_change_messages_enabledunmuted_video_countunmuted_video_limitstream_dc_idinvite_linkdefault_send_asThe join_date_asc flag is set only when the call is created and never changes afterwards, so it too is not applied from a min constructor.
