Connect Telegram

Connect with phone + code (and 2FA if enabled)

Connect Telegram to Sentinel so your team can handle Telegram conversations inside the same shared inbox.

1. Prerequisites

Before connecting, make sure you have a Telegram account and a phone number that’s ready to be connected. Keep your Telegram app available because you’ll receive a login code.

2. Integrate Telegram (phone + code)

Go to Platforms → Telegram, click Integrate, then enter your phone number. Telegram will send a code to your Telegram app—enter it to finish login.

If your Telegram account has 2FA (Two-Step Verification) enabled, you’ll also be asked for your Telegram password. This is a security feature you previously set in the Telegram app to protect logins beyond the code.
