1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Facebook and Telegram Integration

To start sharing Facebook posts to a Telegram channel automatically, you need to access Pabbly Connect. Begin by navigating to the Pabbly Connect website at Pabbly.com/connect. If you are a new user, click on ‘Sign Up’ to create an account and receive 100 free tasks.

Once you have signed up or logged in, you will be directed to your dashboard. From here, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to initiate the integration process. You will be prompted to name your workflow, such as ‘Facebook to Telegram Automation’. Click on ‘Create’ to proceed.

2. Setting Up Facebook as Trigger Application in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set Facebook as the trigger application within Pabbly Connect. Select ‘Facebook Pages’ as your trigger application. The specific event you want to trigger this workflow is ‘New Post’. This means every time a new post is made on your Facebook page, it will initiate the workflow.

• Click on ‘Connect’ to link your Facebook account with Pabbly Connect.
• Select the Facebook page from which you want to fetch posts.
• Set the number of posts to fetch, for example, 2.

After configuring these options, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will allow Pabbly Connect to fetch the latest posts from your selected Facebook page. Ensure that the privacy setting of your posts is Pabbly to allow access.

3. Configuring Telegram as Action Application in Pabbly Connect

Now, you will configure Telegram as the action application in your Pabbly Connect workflow. Choose ‘Telegram Bot’ as the action application and select ‘Send Text Message’ as the action event. This step ensures that the fetched Facebook post will be sent to your Telegram channel.

To connect Telegram, you need a bot token. You can create a new bot by interacting with the BotFather on Telegram. Type ‘/newbot’ to create a new bot, give it a name, and get the token for your bot.

• Copy the bot token provided by BotFather.
• Paste the token into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.
• You will also need the chat ID of your Telegram group where the messages will be sent.

Once you have pasted the token and chat ID, map the message content from the Facebook post to the Telegram message field. This mapping ensures that each new post is sent to Telegram automatically.

4. Testing the Integration and Ensuring Success

After setting up both applications, it’s crucial to test the integration to ensure everything works seamlessly. In Pabbly Connect, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to send a test message to your Telegram channel. If successful, you should see the Facebook post reflected in your Telegram group.

To verify, check your Telegram channel for the test message. If the message appears, this indicates that your integration is functioning correctly. You can also post a new message on your Facebook page to see if it automatically shares to Telegram after the polling time of 10 minutes.
