How the wire-up works
Three things to know: the protocol, the credential, and what the alert payload looks like. The setup is the same on free and Pro.
- Protocol
- smtp-email
- Credential
- Bot token (from @BotFather) + Chat ID (numeric, or @channelname for a public channel). The bot must be added to the target chat.
- Payload
- sendMessage with Markdown-formatted text — title, monitor name, status, latency, and a link to the endpoint. Telegram strips the unsupported HTML tags.

When Telegram is the right pick
Your team is on Telegram and you want the alerts to land where the team already is — a small dev group, a SRE on-call group, a public status channel.
