Integrating with Telegram
Link your Telegram account to sync direct contact conversations into Communication and contact timelines.
Frequently asked questions
How do I link Telegram?
Open Settings, Personal, My integrations, Telegram and select Get QR code. In Telegram on your phone, open Settings, Devices, Link Desktop Device and scan the code. If you use two-step verification, enter your password on the card within 5 minutes.
Does Telegram import my old messages?
Partly. When you link, Lumenbase looks at your 50 most recent chats and reads the last 20 messages of each 1:1 chat with a person. Only chats with contacts reach the inbox and timelines.
Why is a Telegram chat in Needs linking?
Telegram only shows a phone number if the person shares it with you. Without it, Lumenbase cannot match the chat to a contact. Run Match to contacts on the Telegram card, or link it from the message history in Communication with Add.
Can automations react to Telegram messages?
Not yet. The Telegram message received trigger is listed in Automations but does not start automations. The Send Telegram message action works for contacts with a linked Telegram conversation.
