1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To start the process of automating sending Facebook group posts to a Telegram channel, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Begin by navigating to the URL Pabbly.com/connect.

Once on the landing page, you will see options to either sign in or sign up for free. If you are a new user, click on the signup option to create an account, which only takes a couple of minutes. Existing users can simply log in.

2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After signing in, you will be directed to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to begin setting up the integration to send Facebook group posts to the Telegram channel.

• Name your workflow appropriately, for example, ‘Facebook Group Posts to Telegram’.
• You will see two sections: Trigger and Action. The Trigger application will be Facebook.
• Select ‘New Post’ as the trigger event to start the workflow whenever a new post is made in the Facebook group.

After setting the trigger, click on ‘Connect’ to link your Facebook account to Pabbly Connect. This will allow the platform to fetch new posts from your Facebook group.

3. Setting Up Facebook Group in Pabbly Connect

Once connected to Facebook, you need to select the specific Facebook group from which you want to fetch posts. In Pabbly Connect, you will see a dropdown menu to choose your group.

After selecting your group, you will need to set a limit for the number of posts to be fetched during each execution. It is recommended to set this limit above 10 for optimal results, but for testing purposes, you can set it to 1.

4. Configuring Telegram Channel in Pabbly Connect

With the Facebook group set up, the next step involves configuring the Telegram channel. In Pabbly Connect, select Telegram as your action application and choose the action event ‘Send Text Message’.

• You will need to connect your Telegram account by providing a token from the BotFather.
• To get this token, create a new bot in Telegram by messaging BotFather and following the prompts.
• Once you have the token, paste it into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

After successfully connecting to Telegram, you will need to enter the chat ID of the group where you want to send the posts. Make sure to promote your bot as an admin in the Telegram group for it to send messages.

5. Testing the Integration and Finalizing

Now that both Facebook and Telegram configurations are complete, it’s time to test the integration. You can do this by posting a new message in your selected Facebook group.

Return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will fetch the latest post from your Facebook group and attempt to send it to your Telegram channel. If successful, you will see the message appear in your Telegram group.

Remember that the trigger checks for new posts every 10 minutes, so any posts made during this time will be sent to Telegram automatically. This integration allows seamless sharing of your Facebook group posts to your Telegram channel, enhancing your social media management.
