Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for GitHub and Telegram and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Development, and Communication workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.
In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.
You can find GitHub and Telegram in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure GitHub and Telegram nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.
A connection establishes a link between GitHub and Telegram (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.
Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect GitHub and Telegram with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.
Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from GitHub to Telegram or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.
This workflow allows you to release a new version via a Telegram bot command. This workflow can be used in your Continous Delivery pipeline.
Telegram Trigger node: This node will trigger the workflow when a message is sent to the bot. If you want to trigger the workflow via a different messaging platform or a service, replace the Telegram Trigger node with the Trigger node of that service.
IF node The IF node checks for the incoming command. If the command is not deploy, the IF node will return false, otherwise true.
Set node: This node extracts the value of the version from the Telegram message and sets the value. This value is used later in the workflow.
GitHub node: This node creates a new version release. It uses the version from the Set node to create the tag.
NoOp node: Adding this node is optional.
Nodes used in this workflow
Create custom GitHub and Telegram workflows by choosing triggers and actions. Nodes come with global operations and settings, as well as app-specific parameters that can be configured. You can also use the HTTP Request node to query data from any app or service with a REST API.
