Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Cloudinary, Telegram, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Cloudinary and Telegram integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Cloudinary and Telegram (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Cloudinary and Telegram
Telegram + Cloudinary + Telegram: When a user sends a photo to a Telegram bot, the photo is uploaded to Cloudinary. Then, a transformed version of the image (e.g., a thumbnail or watermarked image) is sent back to the user via Telegram.
Telegram + Cloudinary + Google Drive: When a user sends a photo via Telegram, the photo is uploaded to Cloudinary for processing and storage. A copy of the original photo from Telegram is then saved to Google Drive for archival purposes.
