Connect FilingIQ to Telegram

FilingIQ delivers signals as Telegram messages from @FilingIQBot. The setup is a single deep-link click — you'll never touch a bot token or a webhook URL. The bot only sends signals to your personal chat, it does not join groups.

What you need

• A FilingIQ account on the Professional or Enterprise tier.
• A Telegram account.

Step by step

1. In FilingIQ, open Settings → Integrations and click Connect Telegram.
2. Your browser opens a deep link to t.me/FilingIQBot?start=<token>. Telegram either opens directly (desktop app, mobile app) or shows a web fallback prompting you to open the app.
3. Click Start in the Telegram chat with the bot. The bot reads the one-time connect token, links it to your FilingIQ account, and replies with a confirmation message.
4. Back in FilingIQ, click Refresh status on the Telegram card. It now shows Connected as @your_username.
5. Open the standard webhooks page, click Add webhook, pick Telegram as the provider, and choose your event types and filters. The URL field is hidden — delivery routes through your linked chat ID automatically.

Message format

Telegram doesn't support Block Kit or rich embeds, so signals arrive as concise Markdown-formatted messages:

*NVDA* — Score 87
Cluster Buy — 3 executives accumulated shares following pullback.
Insiders: 3 | Cap: 2.8T | Latency: 9.4s after SEC release
View signal: https://app.filingiq.io/signal/abc123

The link at the bottom opens the signal in the FilingIQ app for full context.

Filtering noisy signals

Same filters as the other integrations:

• Minimum signal score — set to 75 or 80 to keep only high-conviction signals.
• Ticker filter — comma-separated allow-list. Useful for watchlist-style Telegram channels.

Disconnecting

Open the Telegram card in Settings → Integrations and click Disconnect. This removes the link between your FilingIQ account and your Telegram chat ID; any active webhook endpoints using Telegram stop receiving messages until reconnected.

To also stop the bot from your side, open the chat with @FilingIQBot in Telegram and use Telegram's built-in Block bot action. This is not required — the FilingIQ disconnect already stops all delivery.

Troubleshooting

• Deep link doesn't open Telegram — make sure Telegram is installed and your browser allows custom protocol handlers. As a fallback, search for @FilingIQBot in Telegram manually and send /start <token> using the token from the deep link URL.
• "Connect token expired" — connect tokens expire after five minutes. Click Connect Telegram again to mint a fresh one.
• "Telegram integration is not yet available on this deployment" — the FilingIQ server hasn't been configured with a bot username. This is a server-side setup item; reach out to support.
• Messages stop arriving — Telegram silently drops messages from bots a user has blocked or muted. Check the bot isn't blocked in Telegram, then trigger a fresh signal to verify delivery.
