How to configure Telegram integration

To create a Telegram notification, follow the same steps as for creating email notifications:

  1. Create a new channel.
  2. Select or create new recipients.
  3. Configure the notification.

In the first step, when creating a channel, select Telegram as the Channel Type and set the following:

  • Bot Token: To get your token, talk to BotFather and follow a few simple steps. After completing the setup, start a chat with your bot to activate it.
  • Chat ID: To get it, talk to GetId Bot. Send the /my_id command to the Telegram bot @getidsbot.
    • To get a group chat ID, first add @getidsbot to the group you want to send messages to.
    • Then send the /my_group_id command in the group. (Group chat IDs start with a dash -).
    • To send messages to a group, you also need to invite your bot (the one whose token is used for the channel) to that group.
