Telegram – how to get the current amount of subscribers

[Martin]

Hi,

is there any opportunity to get automatically the current amount of subscribers of a channel?
Any ideas?

Best regards,
Martin

Hi @Martin,

For that use case, there is a module available in the Make Telegram app.

I think this is what you need. Right?

Thank you Callinetic,

is this a new module?
I just found a workaround with an http-request, too.

No worries.
The workaround you posted is actually exactly the same endpoint as the module in the built-in app.
So I would suggest using the Telegram app instead of a separate HTTP app. Better for maintainability and readability.
