Hey @shimrannn

To extract messages from a Telegram channel using Pabbly Connect, first create a Telegram bot through [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather) to receive the API token. Then, add the bot to your channel as an admin. Set up a workflow in Pabbly Connect with Telegram as the trigger, inputting the API token and chat ID. For configuring the trigger event to capture real-time Telegram messages, you may consult the video lesson provided.

Hey @shimrannn

This won't be possible if the user is not the admin of that specific channel. The channel from which you want the texts to be extracted, the admin permissions are required.
