How do I connect the Telegram API with Modiva?
Create a Modiva account, generate an MCP key, and connect Telegram from your dashboard. Modiva runs the full OAuth flow and stores the encrypted token for you — no client secrets in your code.
What can I do with the Telegram API through Modiva?
Post to channels and manage bots. You get 10 typed tools grouped by resource (accounts_, posts_, comments_, messages_, analytics_), callable over REST or the MCP server.
Do I need to handle OAuth or token refresh myself?
No. Modiva handles the Telegram OAuth handshake, token storage (envelope-encrypted) and automatic refresh. You call a single unified endpoint.
Can an AI agent use the Telegram API?
Yes — that is the point. Modiva exposes Telegram as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools, so agents like Claude, Cursor or your own app can read and act on Telegram through one endpoint.
