The TeleIRC SIG is responsible for "bridges" between IRC channels and Telegram groups. Fedora community members may request new bridges to connect an IRC channel to a Telegram group. If you are part of a larger sub-community, discuss bridging with your team _before_ making a request.

Next, open a https://pagure.io/sig-teleirc/infrastructure/new_issue[new issue] on the TeleIRC SIG _infrastructure_ repository. In your ticket, include the following information:

Instructions on how to retrieve a Telegram chat ID are found on https://stackoverflow.com/a/32572159[StackOverflow].

Follow all instructions for the bot to work as expected (note the bot privacy setting). The BotFather gives you a Telegram API token after creating the bot. Later, you will provide this token to the TeleIRC SIG.
|
|
|

|
|
|
Finally, send the Telegram secrets in an email to the TeleIRC SIG. Include the following in your email:
