API Credentials for Telegram Bot

Guide to obtaining tokens, keys, and connections.

To connect your Telegram bot with Botize you need the "Access Token" generated by @BotFather. Below you will find step‑by‑step instructions on how to create it and copy it from the Telegram app.

Access Token (Bot Token)

  1. 1

    Open the Telegram app on your phone or computer and, in the search bar, type "BotFather"; select the verified contact with a blue check‑mark.

  2. 2

    Tap the “Start” button (or type /start) to begin the chat with BotFather.

  3. 3

    Type /newbot and send it. BotFather will first ask you for a display name for your bot (for example, “My Deal Bot”).

  4. 4

    When prompted, type a username that ends in “bot” and is not already in use (e.g., “mydeals_bot”).

  5. 5

    BotFather will now display a message with your access token, something like “123456:ABC‑DEF1234ghIkl‑zyx57W2v1u123ew11”. Copy the entire string and store it in a safe place: this is your Access Token.

  6. 6

    All set! Paste the token into Botize’s connection form. If you lose the token or share it by mistake, return to BotFather and use /token or /revoke to generate a new one.
