Depending on your setup, data should flow between Creatomate 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 Creatomate and Telegram
Creatomate + Telegram + Google Sheets: When a new video render is completed in Creatomate, a message containing the video link is sent to a Telegram channel. Details of the render, such as the template used and render time, are also logged in a Google Sheet for tracking and analysis.
Telegram + Creatomate + Airtable: When a user sends a request in Telegram, it triggers a video creation in Creatomate using the specified parameters from the Telegram message. Once the video is rendered, its status and details, along with the original request from Telegram, are logged in an Airtable base for tracking and management.
