[Haninou]

hey there. am hosting n8n localy and i can’t use telegram to trigger my workflow and i get this type of error

Hey @Haninou ,

Are you self hosting or using n8n cloud ?
Your webhook contains an https url as the error is stating ?
Can you embed your Workflow to see what you are doing ?

[Haninou]

i have no problem with the access token as u can see

but when it comes to execute step the problem show up

Could you show us how your Webhook Node looks like to see your configuration for the webhook url? Just add a webhook node, open its configuration, them make and send a screenshot.

[Haninou]

this the webhook node

do u self-hosted it?

This is not a webhook node, this is a telegram node, please show us the webhook node configuration. If your configuration shows localhost or internal network address, and most importantly shows that you instance uses http instead of https - this is the reason for your problem.

In order for telegram to register a webhook (to send events to n8n) the destination (n8n server) must be accepting https connections). For that you will be needing to change the configuration of your n8n server in the way that will specify which protocol and address to use). The most important configuration parameter for that will be WEBHOOK_URL. You will have to set it up, so that all the webhook type nodes allow connections on a publicly accessible, https based url. If you have your own domain, you will need to point it to your server, if you don’t, you can use ngrok, zgrok or similar solutions. Let me know if that makes sense.

yes you need https connection to connect to telegram.
you can do so by using ngrok.
for guide you can refer to e.g: this youtube video for setting up ngrok.
