How to use Telessist

Telessist can be installed and run as a system service or a Docker container.

1. Create new telegram bot and get the token Open Telegram messenger, sign in to your account or create a new one.

   Enter @Botfather in the search tab and choose this bot (Official Telegram bots have a blue checkmark beside their name.)

   

   Click “Start” to activate BotFather bot.

   

   In response, you receive a list of commands to manage bots. Choose or type the /newbot command and send it.

   

   Choose a name for your bot — your subscribers will see it in the conversation. And choose a username for your bot — the bot can be found by its username in searches. The username must be unique and end with the word “bot.”

   

   After you choose a suitable name for your bot — the bot is created. You will receive a message with a link to your bot t.me/<bot_username>, recommendations to set up a profile picture, description, and a list of commands to manage your new bot.
