Telegram integration

@RumoroAlertsBot sends instant alerts and digests to a chat with you or to a team group. Connecting takes one tap, without tokens or chat ids.

Connect from the dashboardCopy Anchor Link

Go to Settings › Integrations › Telegram.

1. Click Connect Telegram to get a one-time link. It is valid for 15 minutes.
2. Click Open in Telegram and press Start, or choose Add to a group. The chat shows up in the dashboard within seconds.
3. In Alerts, pick the rules that should post to this chat.

If t.me links don't open, message the bot /start <code>, using the code shown next to the buttons.

One chat can serve many rules. Removing a chat detaches it from all of them. Groups that turn into supergroups keep working. The bot only posts to chats that are connected.

The first line says what kind of mention it is, as in Slack. Then come the author, the classifier's note and the post.

A digest is one message. It shows how many mentions came in and how many are relevant, the change against the previous period, the platforms and keywords, then up to 5 mentions under "Needs you today" and 5 under "Also worth a look", and a link to the feed. If it would be longer than Telegram's limit of 4,096 characters, the last sections are left out.

DeliveryCopy Anchor Link

Only scored mentions that pass the filter are sent, once per post per chat. When Telegram asks the bot to slow down, Rumoro waits and tries again, up to 5 times. For a very busy keyword, a digest works better. A chat that blocked or removed the bot fails right away and shows up in the delivery history.

Connect through the APICopy Anchor Link

# 1. Create a connect link.
curl -X POST https://api.rumoro.dev/v1/telegram/links \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RUMORO_API_KEY"
# { "url": "https://t.me/RumoroAlertsBot?start=...", "groupUrl": "https://t.me/RumoroAlertsBot?startgroup=...",
#   "code": "...", "expiresAt": 1759600000000 }

# 2. After Start, the chat is a channel of kind "telegram" (see GET /v1/channels). Point a rule at it.
curl -X POST https://api.rumoro.dev/v1/alerts \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RUMORO_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "name": "Team chat", "mode": "instant", "filter": { "minRelevance": 60 }, "channelIds": ["dest_..."] }'

GET /v1/telegram/status returns { "configured": true, "botUsername": "RumoroAlertsBot" }. DELETE /v1/channels/{id} disconnects a chat. The Telegram connection endpoints aren't in the API reference.
