Module 04

Operators and Telegram

Operators answer site visitors from Telegram — no extra app and no tab that must stay open. Connect your bot, invite the team with a link, and requests land in the messenger.

Operators and Telegram

Reply from the dashboard or Mini App, hand chats to teammates.

Why it exists

What problem it solves

Reply where your team works

Receive website enquiries in Telegram and reply with text, templates or photos.

Keep conversations assigned

The first operator to reply becomes responsible and can hand the chat to a colleague.

Find waiting visitors

The unanswered filter helps the team find conversations waiting over ten minutes.

How it is used
