Telegram alerts not working

[nhasian]

Using ansible-semaphore in docker with image semaphoreui/semaphore:latest
I used the @rawdatabot in Telegram to retrieve my chat id.
In ansible-semaphore from the Dashboard -> SETTINGS, I enter my chat id in "Telegram Chat ID (Optional) and click SAVE.
I'm not sure if it matters for Telegram, but I also have Send alerts enabled for the admin user, though I suspect this is just for email notifications.

When running a task, whether it is Success or Failed, I do not receive any Telegram notifications.

I think one needs to set the following in the Semaphore config:

telegram_alert: true
telegram_chat: <chat id>
telegram_token: <token from BotFather>

However so far I also haven't been successful with sending alerts - a failure is reported upon a failing task:

7:48:56 PM
Running playbook failed: exit status 4
7:48:56 PM
Can't send telegram alert! Response code: 403

So at least I know that Semaphore tries to send the alert. Not clear to me why 403 error is triggered.

Hello, same problem for me :(
Do you have a solution please ?
Thank you

Telegram alerts work. It is configuration issue. Did you test your bot via curl?

I have solved my problem.
I create a groupe with ansible bot and copy the chat_id of group and it's ok ;)

Thank you

I had my profile private so was getting a 400 error. This work-around allowed me to keep my account private.
