FAQ
What is a Telegram chat ID?
A Telegram chat ID is a unique number that identifies a specific chat, group, or channel. For groups, the ID is typically a negative number. You need this ID when building bots or integrations to send messages to specific groups programmatically.
How do I get a bot token?
To get a bot token, open Telegram and search for @BotFather. Send /newbot and follow the instructions to create a new bot. BotFather will give you a token that looks like "123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11". Keep this token private as anyone with it can control your bot.
Why is my group not showing up?
If your group does not appear, make sure the bot is actually added to the group. Sometimes it takes a few moments for updates to propagate. Try removing the bot from the group and adding it back. Also ensure you are using the correct bot token.
Is it safe to enter my bot token?
Yes, this tool is completely browser-based. Your bot token is only used to make API calls directly from your browser to Telegram. It never passes through any server or leaves your device. However, treat your token like a password and do not share it publicly.
