Connecting Telegram

Email and calendar are connected. Now you need a delivery channel — a place where the agent will send your digest.

We're choosing Telegram for a simple reason: notifications arrive on your phone instantly. No need to open a browser, log into ASCN, or check your email — the message appears right where you already chat with colleagues.

How it works

In Telegram, the agent communicates through a bot. You create a bot using a special service — BotFather — and receive a token. You paste that token into ASCN, and the agent gains the ability to send you messages.

Step 1. Create a bot in Telegram

1. Open Telegram and find @BotFather
2. Send it the command: /newbot
3. BotFather will ask for a bot name — enter something like: Morning Assistant
4. Then it will ask for a username (must end with _bot) — enter something like: andres_morning_bot
5. BotFather will send you a token — a long string like 7412365890:AAF...

BotFather

Copy the token — you'll need it in the next step.

Step 2. Connect the bot in ASCN
