🔵How to Create a Telegram Bot

4min

Follow these steps to create a Telegram bot:
1. Find BotFather
Open Telegram and search for @BotFather — this is the official bot for creating and managing other bots.
﻿
2. Start the Creation Process
Send the /start command to BotFather.
Then, use the /newbot command to create a new bot.
﻿
3. Start the Creation Process
BotFather will ask you to provide a name for your bot. This name will be visible to users (you can change it later).
Next, BotFather will ask for a unique username for your bot. The username must be unique and end with bot (for example, MyCoolBot or Weather_Bot).
﻿
4. Get the Token
Once the bot is created, BotFather will give you an API token. This token is used to connect your bot to code and manage it via the Telegram API. Be sure to save it.
﻿
5. Connect the Bot
Use this token to connect your bot to app.
