Create bot

You should take these steps:¶

1. Create a bot using BotFather (The main telegram bot for managing your bots)

2. Create channel and group

3. Add and configure the created bot in FatherSupports

Create a bot using BotFather:¶

Use the /newbot command to create a new bot.The BotFather will ask you for a name and username (must end with the bot).

If it's successful, BotFather generate an authentication token for your new bot, like this: 1234567890:AAAA-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. This ApiKey will need to be sent to our helper bot FatherSupports (described — here).

Select the created bot in BotFather, then choose Bot Settings → Group Privacy → Turn off. The message text will be changed to Privacy mode is disabled for the botname ...

Creation and basic configuration are complete!
BotFather has other settings, changing the name of the bot, adding its description, setting an avatar, etc. Read more about this in the Telegram documentation.
