Intellect allows sending text or image to the Telegram chat on any event of any object created in the Intellect object tree. After configuration, sending a message is initiated by a macro or a script from Intellect.

Create the bot and the group chat with it in Telegram before configuring the messaging function in Intellect. You may use the pre-created and configured bot @IntellectNotificationsBot. Please refer to the developer's official website for installer and user guides for the Telegram messenger: telegram.org.

Configuring the Intellect to Telegram messaging function

Configure the Intellect to Telegram messaging as follows:

1. Create the Telegram bot object under the Computer object on the Hardware tab of the System settings dialog (1).
   
2. Enter the proxy server address in the Proxy field if the proxy is in use for connection (2).
3. In the Bot ID field, enter the Telegram bot identification number (3).
   

   The identification number is provided when creating the bot. @IntellectNotificationsBot bot id is 474299886:AAGFKHcC8ARX9ziXgTlvKnwNhxnwlDhmD3M

4. In the Chat ID field, enter the chat identification number (4).
   

   To find out the identifier of the chat, you can add @RawDataBot to the chat. After adding, the bot will send a message to the chat containing the result of the getUpdates function. Find ChatId in that message. Then the @RawDataBot bot can be removed from the chat.

5. Click Apply (5).

The Intellect to Telegram messaging is configured.
