Send vendor incident alerts to a Telegram chat through your bot.

This alert channel is included in Pro and Enterprise. Compare plans.

Setup

  1. 1

    Create a bot via BotFather

  2. 2

    Add the bot to your chat

    Add the bot as a member of the group or channel that should receive alerts. For private chats, message the bot once first so it has permission to message you back.

  3. 3

    Find the chat ID

    Send any message in the chat, then visit https://api.telegram.org/bot<TOKEN>/getUpdates to see the chat ID. Save it.

  4. 4

    Click Add channel → Telegram and paste the bot token plus chat ID.

Configure the integration
