Telegram
Your chatbot as a Telegram bot, answering with the same knowledge, tools and workflows as on your website. Setting it up takes a few minutes.
Before you start, build your chatbot and make it Live under Deploy: it answers only while it is Live. What works in every app, such as signed-in users and what your users can send, is on the Channels page.
Your chatbot becomes a Telegram bot that people can find and message. It answers every message in a private chat, and in a group only when someone mentions it or replies to it.
In Telegram
- Open @BotFather and send
/newbot. - Choose a name, which people see, and a username ending in "bot", which is its address.
- BotFather replies with a token that looks like
123456789:ABC-DEF…. Copy it.
In ChatFrom
- Open your chatbot and go to Channels.
- Paste the token under Telegram and press Connect Telegram. ChatFrom checks the token and connects the bot straight away.
- Open the link it shows,
t.me/yourbot, and send a message to try it.
To stop, press Disconnect. The bot stays yours in Telegram, and you can delete it with BotFather.
If your chatbot acts for signed-in users, each user links their Telegram account once with /connect. Channels explains what to add to your product.
