Telegram without webhook by polling

Questions

Describe the problem/error/question

I want to poll a telegram chat but can’t find the right node. I have prepared a Bot and a channel and I cloud use the Telegram trigger now but I don’t want to. I don’t want Webhooks publicly available. I already found the get chat node and I can get the chats information but not the messages.

Which Node to use to get chat messages, images and so on?

Hi @MatzeHH Welcome to n8n :n8n: community :tada:


You can call the Telegram getUpdates endpoint using an HTTP Request Node:

GET: https://api.telegram.org/bot<your-bot-token>/getUpdates
