Make My Bot Private

(Ryan Nails) #1

Hi, I’m fairly new about this bot thing and I would like to ask about Telegram Bot.

Is it possible to make my bot private to certain users? As far as I can see, random people can search my bot in Telegram and I’m afraid some people would use my bot as it will reduce my interactions quota.

I want only the people in my group only to use my bot in FlowXO. I don’t want some random people start to chat with my bot.

Hi Ryan,

If you get your user’s user names for Telegram you could add a filter to your trigger(s) so that it only activates if it matches one from your list. You can check for interaction logs for an example of the user names detected by the bot but the filter would look something like this:
