Telegram Integration Guide

What the Telegram integration does

With Telegram connected, Nakama shows your Telegram conversations — channels, groups and DMs — in their own panel: read messages as they arrive (near real-time), send replies, share files, and turn any message into a todo.

Adding the app (connect)

1. Create your own Telegram API credentials at my.telegram.org (API development tools → api_id and api_hash). Each person uses their own credentials.

2. Open the Nakama side panel, press + (Add) in the rail, choose Telegram and press Connect.

3. Enter your api_id, api_hash and phone number, then the login code Telegram sends you (and your two-step password if you use one).

4. A Telegram icon appears in the rail and the panel opens with your conversations.

Using the app

Browse conversations. The panel title is a conversation picker — channels, groups and DMs, with search.

Send messages. Type in the message box at the bottom (Enter to send). New incoming messages appear on their own.

Act on a message. Hover a message to add it to your Todo list; drag it onto the Todo or Calendar panel to turn it into a task or an event.

Share files. Drag a Drive file or a Gmail (converted to PDF) onto the conversation to send it.

Permissions and data handling

Telegram sign-in uses your own api_id/api_hash (no shared app key). Your session string is stored only in your browser's local extension storage — Nakama's relay server is stateless and keeps nothing.

Removing the app (disconnect)

In Nakama: press + (Add) in the rail, find Telegram (shown as Connected) and press it to disconnect. The icon leaves the rail and the session is deleted from your browser.

In Telegram: you can also end the session from any Telegram app under Settings → Devices, which revokes it on Telegram's side.
