How to Build a Telegram Bot for Link Archiving
Archive links with URLs, titles, descriptions, previews, and tags — without downloading content

This guide shows you how to build a Telegram bot that archives links with their metadata — URLs, titles, descriptions, previews, and tags — without downloading any content.
Find @BotFather in Telegram and run the /newbot command. Give your bot a name and get the API token.
BotFather will issue a token in the format 1234567890:ABCdefGHIjklMNOpqrsTUVwxyz. Store it securely.
Use Telegram Bot API to configure webhook on your server:
POST https://api.telegram.org/bot{TOKEN}/setWebhook
Content-Type: application/json
{
"url": "https://your-domain.com/webhook"
}Create a handler for the /save command that accepts links from users.
When saving a link, extract the following metadata:
• URL
• Title (from Open Graph meta tags)
• Description
• Preview image (if available)
• Date saved
Develop an admin panel for viewing and managing saved links and their metadata.
This bot stores only metadata and links, not content. This is legal and safe.
We'll develop a professional archive bot with all necessary features for you.
