Follow these steps to create a Telegram bot and get your bot token.
Step 1 — Find BotFather #
- Open Telegram (either the app or web version).
- Search for BotFather (look for the blue checkmark).
- Tap Start to begin the process.
Step 2 — Create a Bot #
- Send the command:
/newbot
- Choose a name for your bot (e.g.,
MyFirstBot
). - Choose a username ending with
bot
(e.g.,MyFirstBot123_bot
). - BotFather will confirm your bot creation and send you an API token.
Step 3 — Keep the Token Safe #

⚠️ Important: Keep your bot token private. If someone gains access to it, they can control your bot.
