Pro add-on (optional, separate plugin)

External Services
org ) — a third-party service operated by Telegram — to deliver notifications and configure your bot. This is required for the plugin to function.
What is sent and when:
- On each new user registration: the plugin calls the sendMessage endpoint to deliver your notification. The message contains whatever fields you include in your template — by default this can be the new user’s username, email address, display name, role, and registration source.
- When you save/validate the bot token or send a test message: the plugin calls the getMe and sendMessage endpoints to verify the token and chat.
- When you click Auto-Detect: the plugin calls the getUpdates endpoint to read your bot’s recent messages and find your Chat ID.
- Connectivity check: the plugin may make a request to api.telegram.org to confirm outbound HTTPS is available.
Your bot token is transmitted to Telegram as part of each API request. No data is sent to Telegram unless you have configured a bot token.
