Telegram chat ID

Getting Telegram Chat ID

1. Retrieve the target group/channel’s chat ID. To do this, open Telegram Web and find the chat in the sidebar.

   • Option A: In Telegram Web, open the chat in question. You can see the chat ID at the end of the URL, e.g. -123123

   • Option B: Open inspector and select the chat element. You will find the chat ID in the data-peer-id attribute.

   
2. Important note: you have to append “100” after the minus sign in the chat ID. For example, -123123 should become -100123123
