1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Telegram and Leonardo AI

To generate images using Leonardo AI from Telegram, we first need to set up Pabbly Connect. This integration platform allows us to automate the process between our Telegram bot and Leonardo AI.

Begin by signing up for a free account on Pabbly Connect. Once logged in, create a new workflow and name it appropriately, such as ‘Telegram to Leonardo AI’. This workflow will facilitate the communication between the two applications.


2. Creating the Telegram Bot for Image Generation

Next, we need to create a bot in Telegram that will send prompts to Leonardo AI. Start by searching for ‘BotFather’ in your Telegram account. After selecting it, click on ‘Start’.

  • Enter ‘/newbot’ to create a new bot.
  • Choose a name for your bot, for example, ‘PC AI Image Gen’.
  • Set a username ending with ‘bot’, like ‘pc_image_gen_bot’.

Once the bot is created, copy the API token provided by BotFather. This token will be used to connect your Telegram bot with Pabbly Connect.


3. Connecting the Telegram Bot to Pabbly Connect

Now that we have our Telegram bot set up, we can connect it to Pabbly Connect. In your Pabbly Connect dashboard, select the Telegram bot as the trigger app.

Choose the event type as ‘Set Webhook Updates’. Enter the API token you copied earlier to establish the connection. After saving, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will set up the trigger to receive messages sent to your bot.


4. Sending the Prompt to Leonardo AI

With the Telegram bot connected, we can now send the received prompts to Leonardo AI for image generation. In Pabbly Connect, add a new action step and select Leonardo AI as the action app.

  • Select ‘Create Image’ as the action event.
  • Enter the API key from your Leonardo AI account.
  • Map the prompt received from Telegram to the prompt field in Leonardo AI.

After mapping the necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to send the prompt to Leonardo AI. You will receive an image generation ID in response, indicating that the request was successful.


5. Retrieving and Sending the Image Back to Telegram

Once the image is generated, we need to retrieve it and send it back to the Telegram bot. Add a delay action in Pabbly Connect to allow time for the image to be generated.

After the delay, add another action step to retrieve the image using the ‘Get Specific Image Generation Details’ action from Leonardo AI. Map the image generation ID to retrieve the image URL.

Finally, add a step to send the image back to the Telegram bot. Use the ‘Send Photo’ action and map the chat ID, caption, and image URL to ensure the response is sent to the correct user.
