Telegram Session Keeper

This repository contains a cross-platform command line tool written in Rust for creating and using backup Telegram session files.

With a backup session file, one can retain access to the corresponding account, without having access to the actual phone number, by fetching authentication code using the said file.

Installation

With Rust toolchain installed:

$ cargo install --locked --git https://github.com/xJonathanLEI/telegram-session-keeper

Prerequisite

To use the tool you must first create a Telegram Application and obtain a pair of API ID and API Hash. You MUST use the same application for creating and later using the session. It is therefore recommended that you backup both the session file and the API ID & hash.
