Creating a New Bot

  1. First, create a new bot using @BotFather. Go to this link: https://t.me/BotFather and click START. If you’ve already interacted with the bot, simply type /start. The bot will show all available commands. Next, enter the command /newbot.

  1. The bot will ask you to set a name and username for your bot. If the username is already taken, you’ll need to choose another one. If it’s available, the bot will be activated and show the Token (API key) for accessing the Telegram HTTP API.
