## Telegram
You first have to create a Telegram bot to get credentials. Once you have them you can add these to your `credentials.yml`.

### Getting Credentials
**How to get the Telegram credentials:**  
You need to set up a Telegram bot.

> 1. To create the bot, go to [Bot Father](https://web.telegram.org/#/im?p=@BotFather), enter `/newbot` and follow the instructions.  
> 2. At the end you should get your `access_token` and the username you set will be your `verify`.  
> 3. If you want to use your bot in a group setting, it’s advisable to turn on group privacy mode by entering `/setprivacy`. Then the bot will only listen when a user’s message starts with `/bot`.

For more information, check out the [Telegram HTTP API](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api).

### Running on Telegram
If you want to connect to telegram using the run script, e.g. using:
```
rasa run
```
you need to supply a `credentials.yml` with the following content:
```
telegram:
  access_token: "490161424:AAGlRxinBRtKGb21_rlOEMtDFZMXBl6EC0o"
  verify: "your_bot"
  webhook_url: "https://your_url.com/webhooks/telegram/webhook"
```
