New Telegram Action

That’s great morchee, thank you very much for your contribution!!!

Regarding the _ or * “Bad request”… wouldn’t be possible just to remove them if you detect they are “odd” (unbalanced) before sending the message to the API?

And now taking advantage that is Chrismas again :wink: I imagine it is not possible as Actions are “one-way-only” and can’t trigger a rule, but… would it be possible to receive text from the bot in any way and leave it in a variable or an item? just imagine how nice would be to be able to send commands to the house by texting. For instance, imagine receive a Telegram message whenever you are leaving home saying “You left the heating on, would you like to set it to Eco temperature? [y/n]” and be able to answer “Y” and fire a rule consequently
