Community guide

Back up a private Telegram community.

Private Telegram communities, channels, and groups move fast. Important announcements, moderation actions, pinned decisions, onboarding guides, voice notes, PDFs, and member resources can disappear inside months of chat history.

A cleaner community archive

Instead of asking members to search the chat, admins and channel owners can forward key messages to the bot and keep a ZIP archive. HTML, PDF, and DOCX work as readable offline knowledge files, while JSON, CSV, Markdown, and TXT can feed search indexes or internal documentation workflows.

Good items to export

• Rules, onboarding messages, and admin announcements.
• Moderation actions, incident notes, and decisions that explain why a change happened.
• Shared templates, documents, videos, and images.
• High-value Q&A threads and expert answers.
• Decisions that should be visible outside Telegram.

Only export messages that your community rules allow you to store outside Telegram.
