Launch and test

Before the first message¶

1. Replies are enabled on the bot page.
2. The required event output is enabled and actions are connected to Launch inputs.
3. Required fields are filled and no red error hints remain.
4. Save has completed without an error. No separate publish action is needed.

Test in Telegram¶

1. Start a conversation and send the bot an ordinary message.
2. Test a command, a button and an unexpected answer if your flow uses them.
3. Check that the bot replies once and in the correct chat.

For a group, add the bot first and grant only the permissions it needs. Working in a private chat does not mean it can see every group message.

If there is no reply¶

Open Runtime errors on the bot page. Start with the reported block: check its fields, data from the previous step and service access.
