Telegram

To use the bridge, start a chat with @telegrambot:dwagon.cc.

Authentication

For more info, see the offical documentation.

Note

If you have 2-factor auth enabled or if you are logging in with a bot token, you should use the web login, as otherwise the homeserver database will likely contain your password/token in plaintext form.

  1. Start the login process with login.
  2. Choose the login method you want and follow the relevant instructions.

In-Matrix login

  1. Send your phone number to the room.
  2. The bot should prompt you to send your auth code to the room: send it once it does.
  3. If you have two-factor authentication enabled, again wait for the prompt and then send your password to the room.

Web login

  1. Click the link sent by the bot, enter your phone number and click "Request code".
  2. Enter your code and click "Sign in".
  3. If you have two-factor authentication enabled, enter your password and click "Sign in" again.

Bot token

You can also log in with your own relay bot. This is more limited than real accounts, but it means you can appear as yourself on Telegram without giving the bridge access to your real account.

In-Matrix

  1. Send your bot token to the room.

Web

  1. Click the link sent by the bot and click "Use bot token".
  2. Enter your bot token and click "Sign in".

After logging in, the bridge will create portal rooms for all of your Telegram groups and invite you to them. Note that the bridge won't automatically create rooms for private chats.
