Broadcast Notifications is a beta feature and requires an active subscription. Find it in the web app under More → TG Notification, or go directly to Dashboard → Broadcast Notification.
Before You Start
Broadcasts are delivered by your intern’s Telegram bot, so two things must be in place first:- Connect Telegram — your bot must be set up under Settings → Integrations → Platforms → Telegram.
- Add and tag your groups — every group you want to reach must be added under Telegram → Groups (the Telegram Groups button on the Broadcast page takes you straight there), and the bot must be a member of each group.
Tag your groups
Targeting is entirely tag-based, so tagging is the foundation of the whole feature. Each group carries tags organized into tag groups — for example aType tag group (Customer Support, Notification) and a Batch tag group (1–5). Tag groups marked with * are required; groups missing required tags are flagged with a Missing Required Tags warning in the group list.
How Targeting Works
When creating a notification you pick Target Tags. The matching rule is:- OR within the same tag group — selecting
Batch 2andBatch 3targets groups in either batch. - AND across tag groups — selecting
Batch 2andCustomer Supporttargets groups that are in Batch 2 and tagged Customer Support. - Exclusion tags — groups carrying any exclusion tag are removed from the audience.
Create a Notification
Click Create Notification on the Broadcast page and fill in:
To attach images, create the notification first, then open it with Edit — the edit drawer lets you upload images (with captions) that are delivered alongside the message.
Approve and Send
A newly created notification is a draft — nothing is sent until you approve it. This gives you a review step between writing and delivery.- Review the draft card (content, send time, targeted tags).
- Click Approve. A notification without any target tags cannot be approved.
- At the scheduled send time, the message is delivered to every targeted group. If the send time is already in the past, delivery starts right away.
Track Delivery and Acknowledgments
Open any notification with View and switch to the Tags & Delivery Status tab. You’ll see a per-group breakdown with a summary line like “1 acknowledged • 7 sent • 7 total”. For each group you can see:- Sent / Pending ACK / Acknowledged status with timestamps
- Who acknowledged — the Telegram user who tapped the button, with a link to their profile
- How many times the message has been sent (initial send + reminders)
What recipients see
The message arrives in the group from your intern’s bot, with the acknowledgment button attached (if enabled). Any member taps the button to acknowledge on behalf of the group — the button disappears and the dashboard records who acknowledged and when.Reminders
Reminders are sent automatically on your configured frequency, only to groups that haven’t acknowledged yet, and stop after the configured number of reminders. When every targeted group has acknowledged, the notification is automatically marked Completed.Collect Information
Beyond acknowledgments, a notification can carry a collection request — a prompt for each group to submit a piece of information (a phone number, an email, a form link response).- Open the notification and go to the Collect Request tab.
- Click Create Collection Request and enter the request text, e.g. “Please enter Phone Number”.
- The request is sent together with the notification (and its reminders) — use the Send/Remind actions in the Tags & Delivery Status tab to deliver it.
Templates
For recurring announcements, use the Templates tab:- Save as Template — turn any existing notification into a reusable template (from the notification detail view).
- Create Template — build one from scratch.
- Generate from template — pick a template and give the AI a short prompt (e.g. “v2.3 release, adds SSO support, maintenance window Friday 9pm UTC”); it writes the notification content in the template’s structure and creates a ready-to-review draft.
Other Actions
From the notification detail view:- Retract — delete the delivered messages from Telegram, either from all groups or selectively by tags. This cannot be undone.
- Manual Complete — stop reminders and mark the notification done even if some groups haven’t acknowledged.
- Copy share link — every notification has a public, read-only status page you can share with stakeholders who don’t have dashboard access. Regenerate share link invalidates the old link.
- Learn — add the notification’s content to your intern’s knowledge base, so it can answer follow-up questions about the announcement in any conversation.
- Delete — remove the notification record entirely.
