Calendar scheduling for Telegram

What is Telegram?

Telegram is a secure messaging ecosystem that makes it easy for people to connect, communicate, and share what’s important to them. Telegram is unique in that it’s a communications platform and a social media application. The system comes with a whole suite of tools so people can utilize Telegram on their phones and desktop computers. One of the advantages that Telegram boasts over other similar resources is that it offers seamless sync. This means you can use Telegram on multiple devices simultaneously without experiencing any significant lag. Telegram is also great for businesses because it lets people create groups of up to 200,000 individuals and supports large file uploads.

Telegram and Cal

Cal.com's idea is to provide a customizable and accessible calendar scheduling infrastructure. Our product focuses on making it easy for people to schedule meetings so they can spend less time dealing with administrative back and forth. Cal.com has been built to work with people wherever they are. This means that instead of asking you to change how you schedule, communicate and connect, we’ve made a system that you can tailor to your needs. Cal.com is open-source, which is wonderful, but we also understand that not everyone is comfortable or has time available to learn how to code. With this in mind, we’ve built an app store that allows people to extend the functionality of Cal.com with a single click of a button. Cal.com’s app for Telegram will enable you to set Telegram as a location for your meetings. This means you can utilize Cal.com’s infrastructure while staying within a communications ecosystem you know and love.

How to install Telegram

  • Log in to your Cal.com account

  • Visit the Cal.com app store

  • Choose video from the featured categories

  • Select the Telegram app

  • Hit the install button

  • Go to the events section of your account

  • Choose or create a bookable event

  • Choose Telegram as your meeting location

  • Paste your Telegram link in the URL field

  • Hit the update button

  • Finally, select the save button 

Once you have installed the app, you have the option of using sync-chat for meetings. This feature allows everything to occur via text rather than voice or video. This can be especially helpful if you are in a noisy environment or working from a location with limited internet access or speeds.

Using Cal.com with Telegram is an easy way to combine the strengths of both platforms so that you can schedule, manage, and host meetings the way you want and need to. Telegram provides you with accessible, secure communication, while we take the stress out of scheduling.
