How to connect Slack and Telegram
Create a New Scenario to Connect Slack and Telegram
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Slack, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Slack or Telegram will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Slack or Telegram, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Slack Node
Select the Slack node from the app selection panel on the right.

Authenticate Telegram
Now, click the Telegram node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Telegram settings. Authentication allows you to use Telegram through Latenode.
Configure the Slack and Telegram Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Slack and Telegram Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Slack, 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 Slack and Telegram integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Slack 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 Slack and Telegram
Slack + Telegram + Google Sheets: When a new message is posted in a Slack channel, the content and sender information are extracted and added as a new row in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. Similarly, when a new update is received in a Telegram chat, the message details are also added to the same Google Sheets spreadsheet, enabling centralized archiving for compliance and analysis.
Telegram + OpenAI ChatGPT + Slack: When a new update is received in a Telegram group chat, the entire chat history is retrieved (or a recent subset). This history is then sent to OpenAI ChatGPT to generate a summary. The resulting summary is subsequently posted to a designated Slack channel.
