Do I need to be technical to set up Telegram?
You do not need to run the hosting stack. You will need a Telegram bot token and the user IDs you want to allow; Hermify guides the hosted runtime setup from there.
Can I use my own bot token?
Yes. If you already have a Telegram bot, paste its token in the dashboard and Hermify will use it.
Does it work in groups?
Telegram configuration is designed around a private bot with an allowed-user list. Review your bot settings and Telegram permissions before using it in any group.
What about voice messages?
Telegram is the messaging interface for the hosted agent. Configure the runtime and supported capabilities from the dashboard for your chosen setup.
Is Telegram secure?
Hermify encrypts stored credentials such as the bot token. Telegram bots are not end-to-end encrypted, so do not use them for information you would not share through a standard Telegram bot conversation.
