nerDigital Chatbot Marketing allows your business to automate conversations on Telegram by creating a Telegram bot.

Follow the below steps by step to create and connect your bot to nerDigital Chatbot Marketing.

1 – You will need to chat with the official Telegram BotFather (https://t.me/botfather) to create your bot. Use the /newbot command to create your bot. You can learn more here. After you created your bot you will receive your bot API token.

2 – Setup Telegram on nerDigital Chatbot Marketing

From the main left menu navigate to Settings

To test your flow, create a training phrase like “test” on Set Up AI that triggers your Telegram flow. Currently, you can’t preview a Telegram flow from the flow builder because Messenger contacts can’t be merged with Telegram contacts.
