Telegram

Ownership and availability#

You own the Telegram account or chat. Obelo manages the bot and links the chat using a website-scoped, short-lived code.

Start in Settings → Integrations and check the provider’s current status. This guide describes the configured setup path, not a guarantee of production enablement. Provider approval, plan access and resource permissions still apply.

Before you connect#

• Telegram updates are available in Obelo
• Your website's company intelligence is ready
• An Obelo owner, admin, strategist, or editor may link the chat

Connect an existing account#

1. Open the provider in Settings → Integrations for the intended website.
2. Generate a short-lived link code in Obelo
3. Open the official Obelo bot and send the exact /start command
4. Return before expiry and check the link status

If you need a new resource#

1. Create or sign in to a Telegram account
2. Open a direct chat with the official Obelo bot
3. Return to Obelo to generate a website-scoped link code

Permissions to check#

• No personal Telegram password or bot token is entered in Obelo
• The linked chat receives only the updates and approval prompts enabled by your workspace

Verify and troubleshoot#

Return after sending the command and use Check status before the code expires.

The Telegram chat is not linked yet. Confirm the exact /start command was sent to the official Obelo bot before expiry.

Confirm the selected account or resource and inspect the verification or sync result. A saved connection is not proof that an import or publication has completed. Test the intended workflow with an appropriately reviewed item.

Disconnect or change access#

Use the provider’s management controls in Obelo to disconnect when supported. Revoke the grant or rotate a dedicated credential at the provider if access must end immediately. Review already-imported data separately; disconnection does not remove content already published elsewhere.
