Create a Telegram Bot

To connect Telegram with our automation platform, you first need to create a Telegram Bot. A bot acts as the communication channel between your users and your automated workflows.

Steps to Create a Bot

1. Open Telegram and search for @BotFather.

2. Start a conversation with BotFather.

3. Send the /newbot command.

4. Enter a name for your bot (e.g., Chatly Support Bot).

5. Choose a unique username ending in bot (e.g., chatly_support_bot).

6. Once created, BotFather will generate a Bot Token.

After creating your bot, keep the token secure as it will be used to connect your Telegram Bot with our platform.

Best Practices

• Use a recognizable bot name.

• Add a profile photo and description.

• Avoid sharing your bot token publicly.

• Test the bot before deploying it to production.
