How do I get a Telegram bot token from @BotFather and connect it?
Best answer
Every Telegram bot is registered through Telegram's official management bot, @BotFather. Here is how to obtain your token:
- Open Telegram and search for
@BotFather(look for the verified blue checkmark). - Press Start or send
/start. - Send the
/newbotcommand. - Enter a Display Name for your bot (e.g.,
Acme Support). - Enter a Username for your bot. It must be unique and end in
bot(e.g.,acme_support_bot). - BotFather will reply with a congratulatory message containing your HTTP API Token formatted like:
1234567890:ABCdefGhIJKlmNoPQRsTUVwxyZ - Copy this entire string.
- In TeleGo, navigate to Bot Settings → Telegram, paste the token into the Bot Token field, and click Save.
Security Note: Never share your bot token publicly or in group chats. Anyone with this token has full control over your Telegram bot.
