Website monitoring with Telegram alerts—fast enough for real incidents
Email gets buried; SMS stacks cost. Telegram fits agencies and small teams who already live in channels and DMs. SitePuls supports Telegram as an alert channel alongside email and webhooks when you connect the bot in settings.
Why speed matters for downtime
Every minute of unknown outage is lost revenue and trust. Push-style chat alerts reduce time-to-first-response compared to inbox-only workflows.
What you can route to Telegram (today)
Failures from website, API, SSL, domain, DNS, ping, keyword, and heartbeat monitors—whatever contacts you attach to those monitors. SitePuls does not ship a magic “Telegram-only” product tier; it’s a channel choice.
How setup works at a high level
Configure the Telegram bot integration in SitePuls, link your chat, then pick Telegram as a contact for the monitors you care about—same pattern as email.
Agency-friendly workflows
Drop alerts into a shared channel with context, or DM the on-call person. Webhooks remain available if you forward into Slack or another system.
Not replacing your dashboard
Telegram is delivery; the SitePuls dashboard still holds incident history and monitor configuration.
What we won’t claim
No promise of Telegram-specific AI triage or on-call scheduling—those aren’t part of SitePuls core features.
Pairing with other monitors
Use HTTP monitors for pages, REST for APIs, SSL/domain for renewals—Telegram is just the pipe when checks fail.
Security hygiene
Treat bot tokens and chat IDs like credentials; limit who can add alert contacts in your workspace.
FAQ
Is Telegram required?
No—email and webhooks are alternatives.
Does SitePuls host a public Telegram bot for everyone?
You connect using SitePuls’ documented bot flow in settings—follow the in-app steps for your workspace.
Can SSL alerts go to Telegram?
Yes, if you assign a Telegram contact to those monitors.
Will I get spammed?
Tune check intervals, smart alerts where available, and escalation paths so noisy monitors get fixed.
Mobile push?
Telegram apps provide notifications on phones; SitePuls doesn’t ship its own push gateway beyond that.
Multiple recipients?
Add multiple contacts or channels as your process allows.
Does this replace SMS paging?
Not inherently—choose the channel your team actually responds to.
Where do I configure it?
Alert contacts and Telegram connection live under your SitePuls settings and contacts screens.
