Here is a step by step of the video above:
-
Create your Telegram BOT on Telegram App:
- Search for BotFather on Telegram.
- Start a new chat with it.
- Type /newbot and send.
- BotFather will reply:
Alright, a new bot. How are we going to call it? Please choose a name for your bot.
- Type the name of your bot and send. Ex.: GLPI Telegrambot Demo.
- BotFather will reply again:
Good. Now let's choose a username for your bot. It must end in
bot
. Like this, for example: TetrisBot or tetris_bot. - Type the username of your bot and send. Ex.: glpi_telegrambot_demo_bot.
- Finally BotFather replies with:
Done! Congratulations on your new bot. You will find it at t.me/glpi_telegrambot_demo_bot. You can now add a description, about section and profile picture for your bot, see /help for a list of commands. By the way, when you've finished creating your cool bot, ping our Bot Support if you want a better username for it. Just make sure the bot is fully operational before you do this.
Use this token to access the HTTP API: 872970295:AAFsALgD0WH9BOp-ZU282JVN_lW3l56GZEA Keep your token secure and store it safely, it can be used by anyone to control your bot.
For a description of the Bot API, see this page: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api
- Save the token to access and the bot username to use it late.
-
Config your bot to group messages:
- Now type /setprivacy to BotFather. This command can be executed any time.
- BotFather replies with:
Choose a bot to change group messages settings.
- Type (or select) @<your_bot_username> (change to the username you set at step 5 above, but start it with @) Ex.: glpi_telegrambot_demo_bot.
- BotFather replies with:
'Enable' - your bot will only receive messages that either start with the '/' symbol or mention the bot by username. 'Disable' - your bot will receive all messages that people send to groups. Current status is: ENABLED
- Type (or select) Disable to let your bot receive all messages sent to a group. This step is up to you actually.
- BotFather replies with:
Success! The new status is: DISABLED. /help
