Telegram Integration

HN+ integrates directly with Telegram to auto-post popular posts from your site. Please follow the steps below to enable this.

Message @BotFather on Telegram and use the /newbot command to create a new bot. You'll receive a bot token that looks like 123456789:ABCdefGHIjklmNOPQrstUVwxyz. For more information, please refer to this Telegram help page.

Create a Telegram channel if you haven't already (or use an existing one). Then, go to your channel settings, click on "Administrators", and click "Add Admin". Search for your bot's username and add it as an administrator. Make sure to enable the "Post Messages" permission so the bot can post updates to your channel.

Your channel ID is a number that looks like -1001234567890 which you can get by forwarding a message from your channel to @getidsbot. Or in Telegram Web, you can find this channel ID in the URL.

In HN+ admin panel, go to Integrations and click on Telegram. Add your bot token and channel ID.

That's it! Your contents should appear in your Telegram channel shortly!
