Telegram Bot to n8n workflow trigger

Hi all, I’m having an issue with messaging the bot. Everything works correctly, but only in the test workflow mode, and when I turn the live toggle from off to on, then back on again to set the flow live.

When none of these are active, any messages I send are just stuck somewhere in the ether. Anyone had any telegram sending issues?

sends when in test workflow mode or switching the toggle on and off, but hangs when the automation is live

Quick bump

Does it hang (infinite loop) or does it end execution? And in which node?

hi, it just hangs in telegram, and I think in the telegram node?

Hi, I’m facing the same problem, any solution yet?
