Setup
How to schedule a post to a Telegram channel
Telegram channels accept posts from bots, so the setup is a bot token and a channel rather than a social login. After that, scheduling works like any other account: write, pick a time, done.
- AccountsAll Accounts 1Need Attention 0
- TelegramTelegram account
Step 1
Create a bot.
Open a chat with @BotFather in Telegram, create a bot, and copy the token it gives you.

In your channel, add your bot under Administrators and turn on “Post Messages”.
ConnectStep 2
Make the bot an admin.
In your channel settings, add the bot under Administrators and turn on Post Messages.
- Connect it in PostEverywhere. Open Accounts, choose Telegram, and paste the bot token plus your channel. The bot has to stay an admin there for scheduled posts to go out.
- Write the message. Add text, a photo, an album of up to 10, a video or a PDF, then set Link preview, Silent post or Protect content if you need them.

Telegram content specs and limits for messages, albums and captions
| Feature | Telegram limit |
|---|---|
| Text message | Up to 4,096 characters |
| Photos | One image, or an album of 2 to 10 in a single post |
| Video | Up to 50 MB, the Bot API ceiling |
| PDF document | Sent as a file your subscribers can open or download |
| Follow-up messages | Extra messages that post after the first one, in the order you wrote them |
| Where it can post | Telegram channels where your bot is an admin with Post Messages on |
| Editing after send | Edit in Telegram; scheduled posts can be changed in PostEverywhere until they go out |
Telegram itself caps a caption on photos or video at 1,024 characters, so keep longer stories for a text message or a follow-up.
Albums, video and PDFs
Schedule Telegram posts from a visual calendar, albums and PDF files included
A Telegram channel carries more than short text. Plan a 10-photo album from the harvest trip, a menu as a PDF and a launch video on one week of the content calendar, then drag any of them to a better day before the bot sends it.
- Albums of up to 10.
- Group 2 to 10 photos into one post so the trip, the event or the product range lands as a single swipeable set.
- Spoiler.
- Blur a photo or video until a subscriber taps it, for reveals, plot twists and prize results.
- Caption above media.
- Put the words on top of the photo instead of underneath, when the headline matters more than the picture.

Silent and protected posts
Silent posts, protected content and link previews
Each Telegram message keeps its own delivery settings, so a quiet weekend reading list and a launch announcement can go out from the same calendar with very different manners.
- Silent post.
- Subscribers get the message without a notification sound, good for late or low-priority updates.
- Protect content.
- Stop subscribers forwarding or saving a members-only message.
- Link preview.
- Keep the default, pick a large or small card, or send with no preview at all. Preview above text moves the card on top of your words.
Message Text
Link preview
Follow-up messages
Send a series of Telegram messages in order
Some updates are better as a short sequence: the headline, the details, then the link. Switch the composer to Thread, add your follow-up messages, and they arrive one after another at the scheduled time, in the order you wrote them.
- One schedule, several messages.
- The whole sequence is one entry in your calendar.
- Room to breathe.
- Each message gets the full 4,096 characters instead of cramming everything into one.

Channel announcements
Generate Telegram posts and announcements for members-only channels
Channel posts read best when they are direct: what is happening, when, and what to do next. AI Studio drafts announcements in that style, and since a channel message can run to 4,096 characters, it can write the full story rather than a teaser. The AI content generator helps when you need a fresh angle on a weekly update.
- Announcement-ready copy.
- Drafts for product drops, event reminders and members-only offers.
- Pair it with Protect content.
- Write the members-only offer, then switch on Protect content so it is harder to pass around.
- Edit before it sends.
- Every draft opens in the composer, so you approve the wording before it reaches anyone.

General starting points, not measured from your audience.
Write a month in one sitting. PostEverywhere is a social media scheduler for creators, brands and communities: bulk schedule a month of posts from a CSV, and automate the rest through the developer API or our walkthrough on posting to Telegram with an API.
Broadcast in the channel, talk elsewhere. A channel is a one-way broadcast to everyone who joined, and many communities pair it with a discussion space where members talk back. PostEverywhere schedules the channel side, the part that has to go out on time. Our guide to Telegram for business covers how brands set this up.
Announce it everywhere at once. If you also post the news elsewhere, cross-posting sends it to your other networks with a version written for each, and the content calendar shows the whole plan in one place.

Connect your AI agent
Or let your AI agent schedule Telegram for you, channel by channel
Connect your assistant to the hosted MCP server and it can write a channel update, attach an image from a link, and send it through your bot at the hour your subscribers are awake. Your agent can post now, schedule for later, or save a draft for you to review, which is worth asking for when the wording matters, because every subscriber gets a channel post as a notification.
The same publishing is available to developers through the full API on every plan.
- Connect any AI agent.
- Add PostEverywhere to ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Perplexity, Cursor or any other AI app that supports MCP with one address. It takes about a minute.
- Ask in plain English.
- “Write a four-line update about tonight’s release with the changelog link, and send it to our Telegram channel at 3pm UTC.” Your agent writes every post for you.
- It schedules and publishes.
- Your agent can post now, schedule for later or save a draft for you to review. Every post lands in your calendar, and scheduled posts go out on time through each network's official API.

Works with all AI agents
Telegram MCP server: your agent posts through your own bot
PostEverywhere runs a hosted MCP server, so any assistant that supports MCP can send to the Telegram channels you connect, through your own bot. It is not made by Telegram; PostEverywhere runs it on your accounts. Setup for every assistant is on the AI agents page.
- Scheduled broadcasts.
- Give a time and timezone and the agent queues the message for when subscribers are awake. With no time, it posts straight away.
- Media from a link.
- The agent can fetch an image or video from a URL with upload_media_from_url and attach it.
- Drafts when you want them.
- Every subscriber is notified the moment a channel post sends, so ask for a draft when you want to read the wording before it goes out.
- Rules checked.
- The agent reads Telegram’s limits with get_platform_rules before it writes, so the message fits.
- Message series.
- For a run of follow-up messages, the agent writes the whole sequence and posts or schedules it, sending in the order written.
- Publishing, not chatting.
- The connector sends posts. It does not read replies or moderate comments.

FAQ
Telegram scheduler FAQ
Straight answers about plans, platforms and how scheduling works.
How do I schedule a post to a Telegram channel?
Create a bot with @BotFather, add it to your channel as an admin with Post Messages turned on, then connect it in PostEverywhere with the bot token and channel name. Write the post, pick a date and time, and the bot sends it on schedule.
Can you schedule messages in Telegram natively?
Yes. In any Telegram chat, type the message, press and hold the send button (right-click on desktop), and choose Schedule message. It works one chat at a time; a scheduler adds a calendar, a queue and every channel in one view.
Do I need a bot to schedule Telegram posts?
Yes, for any scheduling tool. Telegram only lets outside apps post to channels through a bot that is an admin of the channel. You create the bot once with @BotFather for free, and it stays yours.
Can I schedule images and videos to Telegram?
Yes. PostEverywhere sends text messages, single photos, albums of 2 to 10 photos, videos up to Telegram’s 50 MB Bot API limit and PDF documents, each with an optional caption.
Can I manage multiple Telegram channels?
Yes. Connect each channel as its own account and pick it in the composer, which makes managing several accounts for clients or brands simple. Lite includes 2 connected accounts, Starter 5, Growth 10 and Scale 20, counted across every network you connect.
Can I post to Telegram groups as well as channels?
PostEverywhere supports Telegram channels: connect a channel where your bot is an administrator with Post Messages on. Posting to groups is not something we promise, so schedule to a channel. The bot does not send direct messages to individual users.
Can I schedule Telegram posts for free?
Telegram’s own Schedule message option is free. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial. You add a card to begin, $0 is due today, and you can cancel before the trial ends. PostEverywhere has no free plan; Lite costs $9 a month.
Does PostEverywhere show Telegram analytics?
No. Telegram posts are scheduled and published, but view counts are not pulled in. Check post views in Telegram itself.
Is there a Telegram MCP server?
Yes. PostEverywhere’s hosted MCP server lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients schedule Telegram channel posts through your own bot and the Telegram Bot API. It is not made by Telegram, and it is included on every plan.
