# Telegram Scheduler

> Schedule Telegram channel messages through a bot. See Bot API text and caption limits and what Repping.AI supports today.

Repping.AI can schedule Telegram messages through a bot you create and connect with its token. The Bot API sends a message immediately, because sendMessage has no scheduling parameter, so Repping.AI sends it at your chosen time. Telegram publishing is live for text, photos, videos and media groups.
