FAQ
Do I need a Telegram account or bot token?
No. The actor reads public channel pages without a phone number, bot token or API key.
Which channels can I analyse?
Any public channel; @name, name, t.me/name and t.me/s/name all work. Private channels are not supported.
How far back does it look?
As many posts as you set per channel; more posts give steadier statistics.
Is it legal to scrape Telegram channels?
The actor reads publicly visible channel posts and counters. Make sure your use complies with local law and Telegram's terms, and avoid collecting personal data about individuals.
How do I get the data into my app?
Use the Apify API, Python or JavaScript clients, or integrations with Make, n8n, Zapier and Google Sheets.
