Telegram integration: TelegramBotConnection

Built in

The Telegram Bot API for one bot. The platform puts the token in the URL path, so it never reaches workspace code. The company agent answers your team through this connection.

What the connection reaches

Bot API methods: send messages, read updates, download files
The channel the company agent answers in
Callable from pipelines and from ontology actions

Status: Built into the pipeline SDK
Connection class: TelegramBotConnection
Credential: Bot token
In use: In use at SegmentStream HQ, our own workspace.

Connect Telegram

Three steps, the same for every connection. The credential goes to the platform, never into the repository or pipeline code.

Declare it in connections/connections.py

connections/connections.py

from segmentstream.connections import TelegramBotConnection connections = (    TelegramBotConnection(key="telegram"),)

2
Deploy
```
$ segmentstream deploy
```
3
Connect
Paste the bot token (from @BotFather) into the connection in the console, or configure it from the terminal with a hidden prompt. API-key connections need no authorisation step: once the value is set, the connection is connected.
```
$ segmentstream connection configure telegram
```

Use it

Code asks for the connection by its key. The platform adds the credential on the way out.

pipeline/ingestion/…

import segmentstream as s with s.get_connection("telegram").get_http_client() as client:    response = client.post("/sendMessage", json={"chat_id": chat, "text": text})    response.raise_for_status()

Or ask your agent

“Post a card to our sales chat when a new lead arrives.”
