So I tried to use IFTTT and created New group and also New channel in telegram and added my bot to those places (set bot as administrator). The first trouble is that Google Assistant can’t send a message on telegram to telegram bot, because it’s not possible to set telegram number for the telegram bot as common telegram user. I can set up HA receiving message from telegram bot (for example “/something”) to trigger some action. HA sends me via telegram bot some notifications. I use telegram bot cooperating with home assistant. Now, if you just type in “Disable” or click on the button, you can disable this setting:Īnd if you go back to your Telegram group and say something (without mentioning the bot), you will see that the chatbot automatically responds:Īnd that’s how you add a Telegram chatbot to your Telegram group.ĭo you already use Telegram Bots in your Groups? And if not, why not? Then, you will see that the privacy settings are set to Enable (by default), which means the bot only replies to commands and mentions. Then, you can select which bot you want to change: Now, you need to type “/setprivacy”, which is a command we can use to change the privacy settings in Telegram groups. The BotFather immediately gives you a list of commands that you can use to change the settings of your chatbot: In Telegram, you need to search for “BotFather” and start a conversation with him: Then, we need to have a talk with the BotFather. Now, the chatbot is only responding when you mention it.īut what if you want the chatbot to respond to all messages in the group? Let Telegram Bot respond to all messages in the group

When you’ve done this, and you will ask a question and mention the chatbot again, you will see that it is responding now: So, you need to click on the top bar of your Telegram group:Īnd then give it all the rights it needs: This is because the chatbot is not an admin of the group. Once you’ve added your Telegram chatbot to your Telegram group, and you mention it, you will probably see that the chatbot doesn’t automatically respond: Only reply if you mention the Telegram Chatbot Then, you need to click on “More” and select Add to Group:Īnd select the Telegram group you want to add the chatbot to: So, you can just go to your Telegram chatbot (mine is called “Pizza-DF-Bot”) and click on the Top Bar: Now we’ve created our Telegram group and we need to add our chatbot. Here, you need to select the members you want to add (probably some friends/colleagues of yours), give a name to the group (for example “Bot Test”) and click on Create:
#Translate bot for telegram install#
If you are on a desktop, just install Telegram, click on the Pen icon in the top-left corner and select New group: So the first step we need to do, is create our own Telegram group.
