Connect a Telegram Bot

Link an agent to a Telegram bot so it can chat with users directly inside Telegram.

Overview​

Connecting Telegram is a two-part process:

  1. Link the bot (this page) — an admin creates a Telegram bot via BotFather and pastes its token into Ragworks.
  2. Generate a link code — an admin generates a code and shares it with the end user, who enters it in Telegram to pair their account with the agent.

Step 3: Create a Bot with BotFather​

In Telegram, open a chat with @BotFather and create a new bot. BotFather will give you a bot token.

Step 4: Paste the Bot Token​

Paste the token into the Bot token field in the Connect Telegram dialog and click Link bot.
