# Telegram
<img src="https://netdata.cloud/img/telegram.svg" width="150"/>
Send notifications to Telegram using Netdata's Agent alert notification feature, which supports dozens of endpoints, user roles, and more.
<img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/maintained%20by-Netdata-%2300ab44" />
## Setup
### Prerequisites
####
- A bot token. To get one, contact the [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather) bot and send the command `/newbot` and follow the instructions. Invite your bot to a group where you want it to send messages.
- The chat ID for every chat you want to send messages to. Invite [@myidbot](https://t.me/myidbot) bot to the group that will receive notifications, and write the command `/getgroupid@myidbot` to get the group chat ID. Group IDs start with a hyphen, supergroup IDs start with `-100`.
- Terminal access to the Agent you wish to configure.
### Configuration
#### File
The configuration file name for this integration is `health_alarm_notify.conf`.
You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the
Netdata [config directory](/docs/netdata-agent/configuration/README.md#the-netdata-config-directory).
```bash
cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
sudo ./edit-config health_alarm_notify.conf
```
#### Options
The following options can be defined for this notification
<details open><summary>Config Options</summary>
| Name | Description | Default | Required |
|:----|:-----------|:-------|:--------:|
| SEND_TELEGRAM | Set `SEND_TELEGRAM` to YES | YES | yes |
| TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN | set `TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN` to your bot token. | | yes |
| DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_TELEGRAM | Set the `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_TELEGRAM` variable in your config file to your Telegram chat ID (find it with @myidbot). Separate multiple chat IDs with spaces. To send alerts to a specific topic within a chat, use `chatID:topicID`. | | yes |
##### DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_TELEGRAM
All roles will default to this variable if left unconfigured.
The `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_CUSTOM` can be edited in the following entries at the bottom of the same file:
```conf
role_recipients_telegram[sysadmin]="-49999333324"
role_recipients_telegram[domainadmin]="-49999333389"
role_recipients_telegram[dba]="-10099992222"
role_recipients_telegram[webmaster]="-10099992222 -49999333389"
role_recipients_telegram[proxyadmin]="-49999333344"
role_recipients_telegram[sitemgr]="-49999333876"
```
</details>
#### Examples
##### Basic Configuration
```yaml
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# telegram (telegram.org) global notification options
SEND_TELEGRAM="YES"
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="111122223:7OpFlFFRzRBbrUUmIjj5HF9Ox2pYJZy5"
DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_TELEGRAM="-49999333876"
```
## Troubleshooting
### Test Notification
You can run the following command by hand, to test alerts configuration:
```bash
# become user netdata
sudo su -s /bin/bash netdata
# enable debugging info on the console
export NETDATA_ALARM_NOTIFY_DEBUG=1
# send test alarms to sysadmin
/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test
# send test alarms to any role
/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test "ROLE"
```
Note that this will test _all_ alert mechanisms for the selected role.
