The latest version of our ETL Software support reading and posting Telegram messages using Bot API. This opens a new window of opportunity for chat automation.

Usage example:

• Create new bot by talking with BotFather
• https://core.telegram.org/bots#6-botfather
• Create a new telegram connection using token provided by BotFather

Note: The user must talk to the Bot first

Upgrade procedure

You would need to run the following SQL against the repository to enable Telegram connections 

Insert into OBJECT_TYPES
(OBJECT_TYPE,OBJECT_TYPE_NAME)
Values
('911','Telegram Connections');

Insert into OBJECT_TYPES
(OBJECT_TYPE,OBJECT_TYPE_NAME)
Values
('912','Telegram Connection');

INSERT INTO OBJECTS_TREE
(OBJECT_ID,
PARENT_ID,
NAME,
OBJECT_TYPE
)
Select
OBJECT_ID*-6 as OBJECT_ID,
PARENT_ID,
'Telegram' as NAME,
911 as OBJECT_TYPE
From
OBJECTS_TREE
where OBJECT_TYPE=320
