Telegram
LiveCustomer Support & MessagingTelegram connector — read-only, agentless
Scans your Telegram bots — the identity and capabilities of each bot (including whether it can read all group messages) and its webhook posture: HTTP vs HTTPS, self-signed certificates, data flowing to external AI providers, and unmonitored update backlogs.
What we scan
- Bot identity and capabilities via getMe (never message contents)
- Bot webhook configuration via getWebhookInfo (URL, certificate, pending updates)
Read-only monitoring — nothing in your Telegram data changes unless you turn on auto-remediation and grant write access separately.
