Telegram Webhook Setup (with Cloudflare)

This guide explains a reliable baseline setup for Telegram webhooks behind Cloudflare.

Baseline requirements

  • Public HTTPS endpoint
  • Valid TLS certificate with full chain
  • Fast 2xx responses

Practical setup steps

  1. Deploy a minimal handler endpoint.
  2. Ensure it returns 200 immediately (log async).
  3. Set webhook to the exact endpoint.
  4. Add basic logging and a dead-letter capture.
