Telegram
Users can optionally configure personal notifications in their user settings.
User notifications are separate from system notifications, and the available notification types are dependent on user permissions.
Configuration
In order to configure Telegram notifications, you first need to
create a bot
.
Bots
cannot
initiate conversations with users, so users must have your bot added to a conversation in order to receive notifications.
Bot Username (optional)
If this value is configured, users will be able to click a link to start a chat with your bot and configure their own personal notifications.
The bot username should end with
_bot
, and the
@
prefix should be omitted.
Bot Authentication Token
At the end of the bot creation process,
@BotFather
will provide an authentication token.
Chat ID
To obtain your chat ID, simply create a new group chat, add
@get_id_bot
, and issue the
/my_id
command.
Send Silently (optional)
Optionally, notifications can be sent silently. Silent notifications send messages without notification sounds.
