Telegram chatbot webhooks implementation as described in the Telegram [documentation](https://core.telegram.org/bots/webhooks).
This is one of two bot implementations supported by Telegram. Described by Telegram as the preferred implementation but requires your Home Assistant instance to be exposed to the internet.
To integrate this into Home Assistant, add the following section to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
http:
base_url: <public_url> # the Home Assistant https url which is exposed to the internet.
telegram_bot:
platform: webhooks
api_key: telegram api key
parse_mode: html
allowed_chat_ids:
- 12345
- 67890
```
Configuration variables:
- **allowed_chat_ids** (*Required*): A list of user in the `user_id` Telegram format enabled to interact to webhook
- **api_key** (*Required*): The API token of your bot.
- **trusted_networks** (*Optional*): Telegram server access ACL as list. Defaults to `149.154.167.197-233`.
- **parse_mode** (*Optional*): Default parser for messages if not explicit in message data: 'html' or 'markdown'. Default is 'markdown'.
To get your `chat_id` and `api_key` follow the instructions [here](/components/notify.telegram) .
Full configuration sample:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
http:
base_url: <public_url>
