telegram webhook not sending any messages - kasio - 2023-11-12
i have been trying to set up a webhook so i would be able to see when new media is added to my server. since i have little to no programming knowledge, ive just been trying different solutions. the closest i got was getting the telegram bot to sent a predefined text message.
i am not sure what event on the server caused it to send the message since it sent three times. i dont mind if the solution is just an ugly looking text message.

Without knowing how you configured the plugin it’s really difficult to give any guidance.
Here is a sample telegram template that someone contributed that sends a message when an item is now available: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-webhook/blob/master/Jellyfin.Plugin.Webhook/Templates/Telegram.handlebars

I put this template in the webhook plugin. Put the chat id. Also put https://api.telegram.org/bot(mytokenhereobviously)/sendphoto in the webhook url. Also set up request header with key as Content-Type and value as application/json. How long does it take for the bot to send a message? I've been torrenting 24/7 and the bot hasn't sent a single thing. I have my media library scan every 15 minutes.

Was not able to set up jellyfish to telegram bot, but found a work around. I made a discord webhook with the webhook available in discord and another one using notifiarr. then i setup a discord bot (TediCross) that bridges all the messages sent in the discord channel i set up where the webhooks send notifications to a telegram channel i set up with the telegram bot. complicated work around and im pretty sure that i messed something up with the basic telegram webhook but all's well that ends well.
