Step1: Create a Telegram Bot

1. Message @BotFather with the following text: /newbot

   If you don't know how to message by username, click the search field on your Telegram app and type @BotFather, where you should be able to initiate a conversation. Be careful not to send it to the wrong contact, because some users have similar usernames to BotFather.

   

2. @BotFather replies with:

   Alright, a new bot. How are we going to call it? Please choose a name for your bot.
   

3. Type whatever name you want for your bot.

4. @BotFather replies with:

   Good. Now let's choose a username for your bot. It must end in `bot`. Like this, for example: TetrisBot or tetris_bot.
   

5. Type whatever username you want for your bot, minimum 5 characters, and must end with bot. For example: telesample_bot

6. @BotFather replies with:

   Done! Congratulations on your new bot. You will find it at
   telegram.me/telesample_bot. You can now add a description, about
   section and profile picture for your bot, see /help for a list of
   commands.
   
   Use this token to access the HTTP API:
   123456789:AAG90e14-0f8-40183D-18491dDE
   
   For a description of the Bot API, see this page:
   https://core.telegram.org/bots/api
   

7. Note down the 'token' mentioned above.

Optionally set the bot privacy:

1. Send /setprivacy to @BotFather.

   

2. @BotFather replies with:

   Choose a bot to change group messages settings.
   

3. Type (or select) @telesample_bot (change to the username you set at step 5 above, but start it with @)

4. @BotFather replies with:

   'Enable' - your bot will only receive messages that either start with the '/' symbol or mention the bot by username.
   'Disable' - your bot will receive all messages that people send to groups.
   Current status is: ENABLED
   

5. Type (or select) Disable to let your bot receive all messages sent to a group.

6. @BotFather replies with:

   Success! The new status is: DISABLED. /help
