2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After accessing Pabbly Connect, the next step is to create a workflow for your Telegram bot. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located in the top right corner of the dashboard. A dialog box will appear prompting you to name your workflow.

• Enter a name for your workflow, such as ‘Create Telegram Chatbot with Image Generation and Smart Replies’.
• Select a folder to save your workflow.
• Click the ‘Create’ button to finalize your workflow setup.

Your workflow will now be created. You will see two windows: the trigger window and the action window. The trigger window will capture events from your Telegram bot, while the action window will define what happens when a trigger occurs using Pabbly Connect.

3. Setting Up Trigger for Telegram Bot

In this step, you will set up the trigger for your Telegram bot using Pabbly Connect. For the trigger application, select ‘Telegram Bot’. The trigger event should be set to ‘Set Webhook to Watch Updates’. This setup allows Pabbly Connect to capture messages sent to your bot.

To create a connection, click on the ‘Connect’ button. A new window will pop up asking for a token. To generate this token, you will need to create a bot using the BotFather on Telegram. Search for ‘BotFather’ in your Telegram app, and start a chat with it.

• Use the command /newbot to create a new bot.
• Follow the prompts to name your bot and create a username.
• Copy the provided token and paste it into the token field in Pabbly Connect.

After entering the token, click the ‘Save’ button to establish the connection. Your Telegram bot is now set up as a trigger in Pabbly Connect.

4. Action Steps for AI Integration Using OpenAI

Now that your trigger is set up, the next step involves integrating AI to generate smart replies. For this, select ‘OpenAI’ as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Set the action event to ‘ChatGPT’. This integration allows the bot to generate responses based on user queries.

Click on the ‘Connect’ button and add a new connection by entering your OpenAI API key. Once connected, you will need to select the AI model, which can be ‘GPT-3’ or ‘GPT-4’ depending on your preference. In the prompt field, you will need to define how the AI should respond to user queries.

Write a clear prompt that instructs the AI to provide helpful, polite, and concise responses. Map the data from the previous step to include the user’s message. Click the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button to test the integration.

Once the test is successful, the AI will generate a response based on the user’s query, which will be sent back to the Telegram bot using Pabbly Connect.

5. Image Generation and Sending Back to Telegram

The final step involves generating an image based on the user query. In this step, add another action in your workflow and select ‘OpenAI’ again, but this time, set the action event to ‘Generate Image’. This allows Pabbly Connect to create a visual representation of the query.

After connecting, enter the prompt for image generation. This prompt should describe what the image should depict based on the user’s question. Set the image size and quality as per your requirements.

Map the data from the previous AI response to guide the image generation. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the image. Copy the image URL generated and prepare to send it back to the user.

Finally, add another action step to send the generated image and the AI response back to the Telegram user. This completes your chatbot setup using Pabbly Connect.

By following these steps, you can successfully create a Telegram chatbot that generates images and smart replies using Pabbly Connect. This integration not only enhances user interaction but also automates responses efficiently.
