Follow these focused guides for the formats and publishing decisions that matter on Telegram.

GUIDE 01

Schedule a Telegram announcement

  1. Choose a channel or group where your connected bot is authorized.

  2. Compose the message, attach media, and choose whether to show a webpage preview.

  3. Select silent delivery or pinning when appropriate, then preview and schedule.

Keep in mind: Check the bot's destination permissions if delivery or pinning fails.

GUIDE 02

Add buttons and send to the right topic

  1. Choose a supported button action and write a short, descriptive label.

  2. Enter and test its destination; set a topic/thread ID when targeting a group topic.

  3. Check formatting and any spoiler or content-protection settings before sending.

Keep in mind: Use a URL button for a straightforward visit to a page; advanced bot actions need a working handler.
