Telegram Integration - Send Messages

Send Telegram messages, PDFs, images & files directly from any Odoo record chatter

Module Video Overview

Features

1 Send from chatter

A dedicated Send Telegram button appears directly in the chatter of any configured model. Open the send wizard, pick recipients, write your message, attach files, and send — all without leaving the record.

Send from chatter
Configure per model

2 Configure per model

Enable Telegram sending on any model - Sale Orders, Invoices, Purchase Orders, and more. Whitelist which PDF reports can be sent and restrict which users are allowed to send. One simple configuration screen per model.

3 Powerful send wizard

A full-featured sending dialog with recipient picker, message composer, format selection (Plain Text, Markdown, HTML), PDF report attachment, and file uploads. Send to up to 50 recipients at once with one click.

Powerful send wizard
PDF and file delivery

4 PDF & file delivery

Attach and send PDF reports with one click. Upload images and they are sent as Telegram photos. Other file types are delivered as documents. The module detects the file type automatically. Reports are whitelisted per model for security.

5 Full delivery tracking

Every message is logged with complete details - recipient, delivery status, timestamps, and error information. Color-coded list view makes it easy to see what was sent, what failed, and what is queued. Filter and group by status, recipient, model, or date.

Full delivery tracking
Manual retry

6 Manual retry

Failed messages can be retried with a single click directly from the message log. No need to recreate the message from scratch. The retry button appears only on failed messages, keeping the interface clean and intuitive.

And much more...

Bulk Sending

Send the same message to up to 50 recipients at once. Each recipient gets their own delivery and is tracked individually.

Chatter Audit Trail

After sending, a summary note is posted on the record showing which recipients succeeded and which failed.

User Access Control

Restrict which users can send Telegram messages per model. Leave empty to allow all users.

Markdown & HTML

Format your messages in Markdown or HTML. Bold, italic, links, code blocks - all supported natively by Telegram.

Report Whitelist

Control exactly which PDF reports can be sent via Telegram for each model. Keep sensitive reports protected.

Instant Notifications

Success and error notifications appear instantly. Know right away if your message was delivered or if something went wrong.

Advanced Filters

Filter message logs by status, date, recipient, or model. Group by any dimension for quick analysis.

Smart File Detection

Images are automatically sent as Telegram photos for inline viewing. Other files are delivered as downloadable documents.

Extensible Architecture

Built with extension points for add-on modules like Templates and Scheduler. Expand functionality without modifying core code.

Telegram Integration - Send Messages — Documentation

1. Getting Started

Prerequisites

Before installing, make sure you have the following:

Installation

  1. Upload the module folder to your server's custom addons directory.
  2. Restart the Odoo service to detect the new module.
  3. Navigate to Apps menu, click Update Apps List.
  4. Search for "Telegram Integration - Send Messages" and click Install.

Note

After installation, new menu items appear under Telegram: Message Logs and Configuration > Model Configurations.

2. Model Configuration

Before users can send Telegram messages from a specific model (e.g. Sale Order, Invoice), an administrator must enable it.

Setup

  1. Navigate to Telegram > Configuration > Model Configurations > New.
  2. Configure the following:
    Model:Select the Odoo model you want to enable (e.g. Sale Order, Invoice, Contact).
    Active:Toggle to enable or temporarily disable Telegram sending for this model.
    Allowed Reports:
     Whitelist which PDF reports can be sent via Telegram. If left empty, all PDF reports for the model are available.
    Allowed Users:Restrict which users can send Telegram messages for this model. If left empty, all users are allowed to send.

Tip

You can create one configuration per model. The system enforces uniqueness.

3. Sending Messages

From Chatter

  1. Open any record of a configured model (e.g. a Sale Order).
  2. In the chatter area, click the Send Telegram button.
  3. The Send Wizard opens as a popup dialog.

Using the Send Wizard

The wizard provides the following options:

Recipients:Select one or more contacts who have a Telegram Chat ID. Only contacts with a linked Chat ID appear in the list.
Message:Type your message text. Supports plain text, Markdown, and HTML formatting.
Format:Choose between Plain Text, Markdown, or HTML.
Report (PDF):Optionally select a PDF report to generate and attach. Only reports whitelisted in the Model Configuration appear here.
Attachments:Upload additional files. Images are sent as Telegram photos (inline preview). Other files are sent as documents.
  1. Click Send to deliver the message immediately.

Note

You can send to up to 50 recipients at once. Each recipient receives their own individual message and is tracked separately in the message logs.

After Sending

  • A chatter note is posted on the record summarizing the delivery: which recipients received the message and which ones failed.
  • A success notification appears confirming the number of recipients.
  • If any delivery fails, a warning notification directs you to the Message Logs.

4. Message Logs

All sent messages are logged for complete traceability.

Viewing Logs

Navigate to Telegram > Message Logs to see all messages.

The list view is color-coded:

  • Green: Successfully sent
  • Red: Failed (with error details)
  • Yellow: Queued for sending

Each log entry shows: recipient, chat ID, timestamp, sender, bot used, source record, message content, status, and retry count.

Filtering & Grouping

Use the search bar to filter by:

  • Status: Sent, Error, or Queued
  • Date: Today or custom range
  • Group By: Status, Recipient, Model, or Date

Retrying Failed Messages

  1. Open a failed message log entry.
  2. Click the Retry button.
  3. The system attempts to resend the message using the original content and recipient.

Tip

The Retry button only appears on messages with Error status. Successfully sent messages do not show the retry option.

5. Formatting Guide

The module supports three message formats:

Plain Text

Messages are sent as-is with no formatting applied.

Markdown

Use Telegram-compatible Markdown:

*bold text*
_italic text_
[link text](https://example.com)
`inline code`
```
code block
```

HTML

Use Telegram-compatible HTML:

<b>bold</b>
<i>italic</i>
<a href="https://example.com">link</a>
<code>inline code</code>
<pre>code block</pre>

6. Frequently Asked Questions

Q: The Send Telegram button does not appear in the chatter.

A: Make sure you have created a Model Configuration for that model and it is set to Active. Also verify that your user is in the Allowed Users list (or the list is empty to allow all users).

Q: No recipients appear in the wizard.

A: Recipients must have a Telegram Chat ID on their contact record. Ask them to send /start to your Telegram bot, or manually fill in the Chat ID field on the contact form.

Q: Can I send to contacts without a Chat ID?

A: No. The Telegram API requires a Chat ID to deliver messages. The contact must first interact with your bot via /start to establish the Chat ID.

Q: What happens if sending fails?

A: The message is logged with Error status and the error details from the Telegram API. You can retry the message from the Message Logs view.

Q: Is there a limit on recipients?

A: The wizard supports up to 50 recipients per send action. For larger volumes, consider sending in batches.
