Currently when a topic receive replies the Telegram bot send the chat notification, but all that notifications messages contain the same format and content...that messages don´t provide a insith view which is the content of that notification....Then we just receive the exactly notifications repeatly and can´t see their differences of messages

Hello. Sure, we are improving it for IPS 5

Hello,

I have a problem, the telegram bot didn't send anything to telegram users accounts.

Is there any problem if I use the same bot for Telegram Login Handler application? For example, the login app its works fine.

i made these steps:

1. I am logged into the forum with my email account.

2. In ACP>Community>Telegram>Settings, I set up bot name and the API key (its same like Login Handler app), add set up access for certain groups. (no guests)

3. In ACP>Community>Telegram>Notifications, I enabled all Notifications

4. In Notifications setting i set up my TG username and saved.

   

Notifications seems activated:

1. In Telegram, my bot, i edit settings and i add command /start

2. 

3. but there is not feedback.

   What did I forget to do?

   Thanks for any tips to help

I use ISP 4.7.19

Hello. Full instruction:

Creating a bot in Telegram

In the Telegram client, find the BotFather bot and send it the "/start" command, after which the bot will send you all possible commands to communicate with it. To create a new bot, we need the command "/newbot", then follow the further instructions and specify the name. After the bot is created, you will be shown the API in the Use this token to access the HTTP API line: It must be specified in the settings in the Admin center> Community> Telegram> Settings API token of your Telegram bot.

In the Bot name field, enter the name of the bot.

Installing the webhook

For the bot to send notifications, you need to set up a web hook. To do this, compose a URL and navigate to it in your browser:

https://api.telegram.org/bot{BOT_API}/setWebhook?url=https://{SITE_URL}/?app=telegram&module=telegram&controller=telegram
After that, the screen should display approximately the following information:

{"ok": true, "result": true, "description": "Webhook was set"}

Configuring notifications

Notification options are enabled in the app, but not activated for all users at once. Therefore, you can make each notification event not as a suggested option, but enabled by default for all users.

Each user will receive a notification on Telegram if two conditions are met:

Enabled parameter in notification settings (/notifications/options/).
The user's nickname is indicated in "Your nickname in Telegram" on the same page.

Webhook url must be url encoded, example":

https%3A%2F%2Finvisiondevs.com%2Findex.php%3Fapp%3Dtelegram%26module%3Dtelegram%26controller%3Dtelegram

i made all steps,

the response for webhook was:

{"ok":true,"result":true,"description":"Webhook was set"}

then i saw in System Logs:

and this:

but my telegram username is added in notifications settings.

What should I check now?

Mby a DEBUG msg to see whats “TG username was not found” ?

Hello. Can you check this url?

https://api.telegram.org/bot{YOURAPIKEY}/getWebhookInfo

{"ok":true,"result":{"url":"https://mysite/?app=telegram","has_custom_certificate":false,"pending_update_count":6,"last_error_date":1731956602,"last_error_message":"Wrong response from the webhook: 404 Not Found","max_connections":40,"ip_address":"9x.26.41.227"}}

This is an incorrect URL, you did not encode it as indicated in the instruction!

is it about this step? i didn't understand it :(

Can you help please?

Solved!!!

https://api.telegram.org/botmyAPI/setWebhook?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmysite%2F%3Fapp%3Dtelegram%26module%3Dtelegram%26controller%3Dtelegram

somehow still a problem.

i check again the url and its said:

{"ok":true,"result":{"url":"https://mysite/?app=telegram&module=telegram&controller=telegram","has_custom_certificate":false,"pending_update_count":0,"max_connections":40,"ip_address":"9x.26.41.227"}}

Now the URL is correct and if you write the /start command to the bot, it will send a message!

I received the notification in telegram

Hello. In version 5, this cannot be done without code hooks, unfortunately.

As I said, I'm not interested in IPS 5, exactly for this reason.
I would really appreciate an update for 4.7.x

and still wait for this
