|
2\. If you want to send personal notifications, you need to obtain chat ID of the user the bot should send messages to.
|
|
|
|
Send "/getid" to "@myidbot" in Telegram messenger.

|
|
|
|
Ask the user to send "/start" to the bot, created in step 1. If you skip this step, Telegram bot won't be able to send messages to the user.

|
3\.If you want to send group notifications, you need to obtain group ID of the group the bot should send messages to. To do so:
|
|
|
|
Add "@myidbot" and "@your_bot_name_here" to your group.
|
|
Send "/getgroupid@myidbot" message in the group.
|
|
In the group chat send "/start@your_bot_name_here". If you skip this step, Telegram bot won't be able to send messages to the group.

## Zabbix setup
|
|
|
|
1\. In the "Administration > Media types" section, import the media_telegram.yaml.
|
|

|
|
|
|
In the `ParseMode` parameter set required option according to the Telegram's documentation.
|
|
Read the Telegram Bot API documentation to learn how to format action notification messages: [Markdown](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#markdown-style) / [HTML](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#html-style) / [MarkdownV2](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#markdownv2-style).
|
|
Note: in this case, your Telegram-related actions should be separated from other notification actions (for example, SMS), otherwise you may get plain text alert with raw Markdown/HTML tags.
|
|
|
|
Test the media type using chat ID or group ID you've got.

Great, you can now start receiving Zabbix notifications in Telegram!
