How do I connect Telegram?

Sign up for Conductor Deck, then add a Telegram step to a workflow on the visual canvas. The builder walks you through the connection it needs — an account authorization or the required keys — right inside the step. No separate setup or code.

Yes — Conductor Deck has a free tier you can build and run workflows on, with no credit card required. Paid plans raise the monthly run limits and add advanced features when you need them.

What's the difference between a trigger and an action?

A trigger is the event that starts a workflow — for example, a Stream Deck button press or an incoming event from a connected app. An action is a step the workflow performs once it runs. A workflow is one trigger followed by one or more actions.

Triggers & actions

Steps your workflow can perform in Telegram.

Get Chat Member

Get a chat member's status/role (including the bot itself) to preflight permissions and troubleshoot 403/empty-history issues. Use before sending messages to verify bot membership and permissions.

Send Message

Send a text message to a Telegram chat using the Bot API. Bots must be members of target groups/channels with post rights. Rate limit: ~1 msg/sec per chat, ~30 msg/sec globally; exceeding returns 429 with retry_after seconds that must be honored.

Answer Callback Query

Use this method to send answers to callback queries sent from inline keyboards. The answer will be displayed to the user as a notification at the top of the chat screen or as an alert.

Delete Message

Delete a message, including service messages. Limitations: cannot delete messages older than 48 hours in groups, forwarded messages, or content in protected chats (returns 400 'message can’t be deleted'). Bot must have delete/manage rights in the target chat; works reliably only on bot-authored messages in groups. Verify permissions via TELEGRAM_GET_CHAT or TELEGRAM_GET_CHAT_ADMINISTRATORS before calling. On flood control, Telegram returns HTTP 429 with a retry_after field; honor that backoff value.

Edit Message

Edit text messages sent by the bot. Only bot-authored messages can be edited; editing messages from other users will fail. In groups, the bot must have edit permissions.

Export Chat Invite Link

Generate a new primary invite link for a chat; any previously generated primary link is revoked. The bot must be an administrator in the chat for this to work and must have the appropriate administrator rights.

Forward Message

Forward messages of any kind. Service messages can't be forwarded.

Get Bot Info

Get basic information about the bot using the Bot API getMe method. Returns fields like id, username, first_name, and capabilities. If the response returns ok=false, the bot token is invalid or revoked and must be replaced before any other API calls. Bot name, bio, and profile description are read-only via the Bot API; modify them via BotFather.
