In detail
What it does and what it's for
Automating tasks with Telegram Bot allows you to optimize the management of your messages on the platform. With the Forward a message action, you can automatically transfer messages from one group or channel to another, ensuring smooth and efficient communication.
This integration is ideal for administrators looking to maintain consistency in the information shared across different chats. It's important to note that, to forward messages from groups or channels, your bot must be a member and have administrator permissions in both. Additionally, service messages cannot be forwarded, ensuring the relevance of the transferred content.
- Service messages can't be forwarded.
- Forwarding messages from groups or channels requires that your bot is included in them and with administrator permissions (also to forward from other channels and public groups).

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I forward messages from groups or channels with my bot in Telegram?
You can forward messages from groups or channels on Telegram in the following ways:
- If you can add your Telegram bot in the original and destination chat, you can forward the messages or copy them in the destination chat.
- If the original chat is public, you can create posts in the destination chat with the same text and content.
- If the original chat is any other chat with a bot, a user, group, or public or private channel, with protected or unprotected content, you can use the copy any content tool. Please note that this last option requires you to be subscribed to the Automate or Scale plan of Botize.
How can I remove the label that indicates a message was forwarded?
In Telegram, all messages forwarded from one chat to another appear in the destination chat with a distinctive icon and the name of the original chat, indicating that these are forwarded messages. This is a feature of the application and cannot be modified. However, you can copy messages instead of forwarding them. This way, you get the same content without leaving a trace of the original chat.
Common Errors
