Send Notifications to Telegram

Telegram Send Message sends a text message using the Telegram Bot API’s sendMessage method. It uses a saved connection for the bot token, plus a chat ID and message text configured on the action.

Save the Telegram bot token

Create or select a Telegram bot and obtain its bot token.

Open Agent Workflows → Connections → Add New.

Set Integration to telegram, enter a label, and choose API Key.

Enter the bot token in API Key and save. The built-in verifier recognizes the telegram identifier and checks the token using Telegram’s bot identity endpoint.

Configure Telegram Send Message

Add the Telegram Send Message action to the workflow.

Select the saved token connection in Telegram bot token connection.

Enter the destination in Chat ID. Use a chat or channel identifier that the bot is allowed to message.

Enter text in Message (supports {{trigger.fields.*}} tokens). Supported trigger-field tokens are interpolated before execution.

Save the workflow and run a controlled test with a destination where the bot can send messages.

Check the action result

The action sends a JSON request to Telegram’s sendMessage endpoint. It returns a success flag, HTTP status, and parsed response when available. It treats a non-success HTTP response or a Telegram response with ok: false as a failure. A successful API response is not a guarantee that a recipient read the message.

If the action fails, check the bot token, Chat ID, destination permissions, and node error output. See Manage Workflow Connections for credential updates.
