This block library allows to interact with a Telegram bot though the offered Thing Actions.
You need the Telegram binding and a properly configured bot Thing.
Blocks
Individual messages
The first three blocks can send individual messages.
Queries/answers
The last two blocks allow to build conversations with the bot through queries and answers. The queries can display buttons and another rule will react to the user’s reply using those buttons.
You can use the Telegram: Process Answer rule template to set up such a rule (with Blockly too), offering a complete Blockly set of tools for Telegram.
