1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Telegram and Google Sheets Integration

To begin the process of adding Telegram messages to Google Sheets automatically, the first step is to access Pabbly Connect. Open your web browser and navigate to www.Pabbly.com/connect. Upon reaching the landing page, you will see options to sign in or sign up for free.

If you are a new user, click on the sign-up button to create an account. This will allow you to explore the features of Pabbly Connect with 100 free tasks every month. If you already have an account, simply sign in to access the dashboard.

2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Once you are signed into your account, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to initiate the automation process. For this integration, select the new beta method for a modern and flexible workflow. Name your workflow as ‘Add Telegram Messages to Google Sheets Automatically’ and choose the appropriate folder for organization. using Pabbly Connect

This action sets up the main framework for your integration. The workflow consists of two major components: trigger and action. The trigger will capture new messages from Telegram, while the action will send these messages to Google Sheets. You will now set up the Telegram trigger.

3. Setting Up the Telegram Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In the trigger application, select Telegram Bot as the source of messages. You need to connect your Telegram bot to Pabbly Connect by clicking on the connect button. If you need to create a new connection, you will be prompted to provide a token.

To obtain this token, log into your Telegram account and search for ‘BotFather’. Start a chat with BotFather and follow these steps:

• Click on the ‘New Bot’ button.
• Name your bot (e.g., Class 10th Bot).
• Choose a username that ends with ‘_bot’.

After creating the bot, copy the token provided by BotFather and paste it into the designated field in Pabbly Connect.

4. Adding the Bot to Your Telegram Group

To ensure that your bot captures messages from a specific group, you must add the bot to that group. Open the group in Telegram and add the bot as a member. Make sure to promote the bot to admin status so it can read messages.

After adding the bot, go back to your Pabbly Connect workflow and click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button. This action will wait for a webhook response from Telegram. Now, send a test message in your Telegram group to verify that the trigger is working correctly.

5. Sending Data to Google Sheets Using Pabbly Connect

With the trigger set up, the next step is to configure the action to send the captured messages to Google Sheets. In the action application, select Google Sheets and choose the event ‘Add New Row’. Click the connect button and sign in with your Google account to grant permission. using Pabbly Connect

Once connected, select the spreadsheet where you want to store the messages (e.g., ‘Telegram Messages Class 10th Group’) and the specific sheet (e.g., ‘Sheet1’). Map the necessary fields, including name, message, date, and chat ID, from the previous steps. This mapping ensures that the data flows correctly from Telegram to Google Sheets.

After completing the mapping, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button. If everything is set up correctly, a new row will be added to your Google Sheets with the message details. This automation allows you to efficiently track messages without manual entry.
