# Publish Your Bot on Telegram

This guide aims to explain how to publish your bot on Telegram. After fulfilling the prerequisites, you can set up your bot on Telegram.

## Prerequisites

1. Create a bot using "@botfather" on Telegram.
2. After creating the bot via Botfather, take note of the **bot username**, **bot name**, and **bot token**.
3. To create a bot using Botfather, search for the handle "@botfather" on Telegram.
4. Use the "/newbot" command in chat (you can text "botfather /newbot") and provide the required details until you receive the **bot token**.
5. Note the **bot token**, **bot username**, and **bot name**.
6. Go to [Telegram](https://web.telegram.org/) and log in to your Telegram account with your **phone number** and the **code** that Telegram sent to you.
7. You will access your chat page.
8. Type "BotFather" in the search bar at the top of the left side. You should click the **v****erified BotFather account** with the blue checkmark.
9. Type "/start" and send this command. Then, you will see all commands for some actions within Telegram.
10. To create a bot, send the command "/newbot".
11. After that, Telegram will ask you to set a **bot name** and a **user name** for your bot.
12. Once you complete these steps, Telegram will send a token to access the **HTTP API**. Copy and paste it to the **token** field in the MindBehind popup.

## Set up your bot
