​
Posting to Telegram

JSON for a basic post with a link and image using the Telegram API:
Telegram Post
{
  "post": "The best Telegram message ever #best https://www.telegram.com", // empty string is allowed
  "mediaUrls": ["https://img.ayrshare.com/012/gb.jpg"],
  "platforms": ["telegram"]
}
Telegram will automatically preview the link in the channel or group unless there is an image or video included. In the above example the image will show. Removing the image will cause the link preview to show. If your video doesn’t end in a known video extension such as mp4, please use the isVideo parameter. See the /post endpoint for details. See Telegram Media Guidelines and Telegram Authorization for more information.

​
Animated GIFs

Only one URL is allowed with a Telegram animated GIF. If the media URL does not end in “.gif” or ”.GIF”, set the isVideo field to true.
Telegram Animated GIF
{
    "randomPost": true,
    "platforms": [
        "telegram"
    ],
    "isVideo": true,    // Set to true if the mediaURL does not end in .gif or .GIF
    "mediaUrls": ["https://img.ayrshare.com/012/cat.gif"]
}

​
Telegram Mentions

Mention another Telegram handle by adding @handle in the post text. For example:
Telegram Post with Mention
{
  "post": "The best Telegram image post ever @handle",
  "platforms": ["telegram"]
}
Please review the important rules on mentions.
