Hope everyone’s having an exquisite Tuesday! I’m stepping in to let you know that there’s a brand new tutorial on using Telegram Bot on Make in our Help Center.
The tutorial walks you through all the steps you need to take before creating scenarios with Telegram on Make.
Namely, you learn how to:
get the Telegram desktop app (since the configuration is easier than using the mobile app)
create a Telegram bot and get its API token which you’ll need when connecting to Make
add your bot to a channel or a group in order to read and post messages
find the chat ID to be able to post messages into Telegram channels or groups
The article also features three specific use cases. For each of them, you get step-by-step instructions you can recreate and therefore get familiar with using Telegram on Make.
The use cases are:
sending RSS feed items as Telegram messages
sending Telegram messages to a Discord server
sending new Google Forms submissions to Telegram
This is just a super brief summary and a teaser of what to expect in the actual tutorial. To explore all the information, you can check out the article and the video that goes hand in hand with it.
Is it possible to have a bot sending messages to a private telegram group? the only solutions I see involve having a public group but I want to keep the group I’m working with private
Hi, I set up a telegram bot for Make. That part is ok.
Is it possible to set a “watch update” module in two different scenarios (I want to watch updates in two different private groups to trigger two different scenarios) using the same telegram connection ? I can’t figure out how to do that.
