You can create and publish posts with a button directly in a Telegram channel or group. This helps drive traffic to the bot or a specific step in it, increasing subscriber engagement and conversions.
1. Preparing the channel or group
-
Select the Telegram bot connected to BotHelp.
-
Add this bot as an administrator in the required channel or group.
-
The bot must have permission to publish messages.
2. Define the group ID or @username
In the tool, you need to specify the @username or ID of the channel/group.
-
If the channel or group is public — simply enter the @username.
-
If the channel or group is private:
-
Open it in the web version of Telegram.
-
Copy the ID from the address bar.
Example:-2744640119. -
If the ID does not start with
-100, manually add these digits before the number:-1002744640119.
-
3. Creating a post
Go to Growth Tools → Publish post with button.
Specify:
-
ID or @username of the channel/group.
-
The Telegram bot (from the list of connected ones) that you added as administrator.
-
Enter the text of the post.
Optionally, add one button:
- With a link to the bot or a specific step in the flow.
- In the button settings, you can enable Ignore repeated launch and specify the ignore period by entering a number and selecting Minutes or Hours.
During this period, a repeated click on the button by the same subscriber will not launch the flow again. The flow that has already started continues without interruption.
By default, the option is disabled, so every button click launches the flow again.
The minimum value is 1. The maximum is 180 when Minutes is selected and 99,999 when Hours is selected.
Important: If you enter a value above the maximum, the post cannot be saved and an error will be displayed in the field.
How the ignore period works:
— The countdown starts with the first launch and is tracked separately for each subscriber + button pair.
— Repeated launches during the ignore period do not extend or reset the countdown. The window remains fixed from the first launch.
— When the period expires, the next button click launches the flow again and starts a new ignore period.
— The option applies only to this specific button. Another Growth Tool or keyword can trigger independently.
— If you change the ignore period or disable the option, the changes also apply to ignore periods that are already in progress. The remaining time is recalculated according to the new settings, and disabling the option immediately removes the restriction.
— When you duplicate the tool within the account, the option’s status and ignore period are copied along with the button.The option takes effect from the moment it is enabled. Launches that occurred before it was enabled are not included in the countdown.
- The button is optional. Click Save and Send.
4. Features of operation
-
The published post can be edited directly from BotHelp.
-
Macros cannot be used in the text.
-
If the post is deleted in Telegram, BotHelp will display the status Deleted — it cannot be edited, only the tool can be removed.
-
A draft can be created if the post has not yet been published or was deleted.
-
If the channel/group is disconnected from BotHelp, when trying to edit a post you will see a notification and a button to reconnect.
-
When deleting the growth tool “Post with button” in BotHelp, the post will also be deleted in Telegram.
-
If in the Flow Builder you delete the deeplink for the step specified in the post button, the bot will not launch when this button is clicked.
