Telegram Personal API

There can be situations where you want to listen for signals in groups where you cannot add any bot. For this you can create a Telegram application with your account, and provide the API keys to Tradecraft. This is a one time setup that you do not need to redo again.

• Go to https://my.telegram.org and create an application for your account

• Select Telegram Personal API as data source type and go through the creation flow, where you provide the API keys from the first step.

Provide the API keys from Telegram.

Provide the phone number of the Telegram account and enter the verification code that is sent to it.

When the account is connected you can search for and select either specific groups, or direct messages from bots or other users to act as signals.

Once connected you select one or several channels that will act as the data source.

Search for users or bots where direct messages acts as signals.

By connecting your Telegram account, you authorize Tradecraft to access your Telegram messages and channel membership for signal monitoring purposes. Your credentials are encrypted and stored securely.

You remain in full control. You can revoke Tradecraft's access at any time through your Telegram app (Settings → Privacy and Security → Active Sessions) or by disconnecting the account in Tradecraft.
