Telegram Scraper

What is Telegram Scraper

1. You securely link your own Telegram account (one-time phone verification).

2. You pick the channels/chats to monitor.

3. When a CA appears, Leap can alert you or auto‑buy using your profile settings.

Highlights

• Monitor multiple channels and multiple Telegram accounts.

• Per‑channel trading profiles (buy size, slippage, filters, TP/SL, black/whitelists).

• Post‑author whitelisting and token/keyword blacklists.

Requirements

• An active Telegram account with a phone number.

• Your Telegram API ID and API Hash (free from Telegram).

Connect Your Telegram Account

When first clicking on Telegram Scraper you will have a message pop-up saying the following:

Simply click Account Settings which will open a new panel with information you will need to fill in.

Step 1 — Get your Telegram API ID & API Hash (5 minutes)

1. Open https://my.telegram.org and log in with the Telegram account you’ll link to Leap.

2. Click “API development tools / Apps”.

3. Create a new app:

   • App Title: Leap Bot (any name works)

   • Short Name: leapbot (any short slug)

   • Platform: Web (or the most appropriate option)

   • URL: leave blank (optional)

4. Submit. You’ll see your API ID and API Hash. Keep these safe—you’ll need them in Step 2.

Keep your API Hash private. Anyone with it could try to log in as you.

Step 2 — Link Telegram inside Leap Bot

1. In Leap, go to Scrapers → Telegram.

2. Click Add Telegram Account.

3. Enter your phone number in full international format (e.g., +44…).

4. Paste your API ID.

5. Paste your API Hash.

6. Add you Password

7. Telegram will send a one‑time verification code (via Telegram/SMS). Enter it exactly as shown.

8. You should see a success notice and then your Telegram Account window should look like this.

Create Telegram Scraper Tasks

Once your Account has been sucessfully set up you can click Go back. This will take you to the Telegram Scraper Task Menu, here you will be able to change Fees for buys and sales, Buy amount, Entry and Exit Strategy, and select Market Filters.

The Fees Page have already been covered, so if you have any doubts here please refer to: Fees

Buy Amount is also very straight forward, this is the amount each of your Telegram Scrape Autobuys will use to buy the coins scanned. To change this simply press Buy Amount, and type the Amount in SOL in chat

Next setting is Telegram Scraper Filters, which is where you will select which Telegram Channels and Telegram Users to target. You also have check options for Listen to Own Messages, and Listen to Bots which is useful for Automated Telegram Signal Channels. In here you also have settings for Website, and Token Filters.

Target Channel Instructions:

If you're using a channel as the target, the bot will monitor it for any contract posts. If the chat is unlocked, it's best to wait until just before drop time or after it gets locked to avoid interacting with fake contracts.

To retrieve the Channel ID, open telegram via web browser - https://web.telegram.org and do the following:

1. Navigate to the channel.

2. Look at the URL — it will contain a sequence of numbers that start with -, it can be something like -100 or -214.

3. Remove the dash (-) and the first three digits (e.g., -2143108337becomes 3108337).

To find the topic ID:

1. Enter the topic in the channel.

2. Click "View Topic Info".

3. The URL will look like this: https://t.me/c/2205123457/33636.

   • The channel ID is the number before the last slash.

   • The topic ID is the number after the last slash.

Using the example above, enter this in the Task's Channel ID field: 2205123457/33636

To Find User IDs:

1. Add our telgram bot to your telegram https://t.me/leaptrading_bot

2. Forward a message from any user to our bot

3. Our bot will show the User ID for that user

The market, token and social filters have their own subsection in this Docs as they are recurring settings for all modes. So if you have any questions about that you can read about them here:

• Market Filters

• Website Filters

• Token Filters

Safety & best practices

• Use a dedicated Telegram account for scraping if possible.

• Protect your API Hash—do not share it. Rotate if you suspect exposure.

• Add keyword blacklists (e.g., “airdrop”, “test”, “dev”) to reduce noise.

• Use user ID whitelists for higher signal quality in large groups.

Troubleshooting

Didn’t receive a verification code?

• Check you entered the correct international phone number and have Telegram installed/logged in.

• Try SMS vs. in‑app code if offered.

Login failed after code entry

• Re‑add the account and carefully re‑enter the phone/API ID/API Hash.

• If you have 2‑Step Verification in Telegram, ensure you also enter your Telegram password when prompted.

• Try a different Telegram account if repeated failures occur (Telegram may rate‑limit).

No CAs detected

• Confirm the channel is public or you’re a member of the private channel.

• Review your filters/blacklists—you may be filtering everything out.

Auto‑buys not triggering

• Verify the channel is Active and linked to the correct Trading Profile.

• Check your wallet balance

• Review min liquidity / min age / anti‑honeypot filters that can block buys.

FAQs

Can I link multiple Telegram accounts? Yes. Add as many accounts as you would like in the accounts tab. You can assign channels from different accounts to different tasks.

Will Leap read my private messages? Only channels/chats you explicitly add for scanning are parsed. Nothing else is ingested.

Is this allowed by Telegram? You authenticate using official API credentials from Telegram’s developer portal. Usage must comply with Telegram’s Terms of Service.

Can I use Alert‑only? Absolutely. You can run your accounts in the monitors tab and manually trade, or enable auto‑buy per channel once comfortable.
