Can I try the Telegram notification on the demo server? Or doesn’t it work on that?
If yes, where can I enter the telegram.key?
You can't because demo servers run with the default configuration.
Ok, thanks, Anton!
Hi Anton,
Meanwhile I set up my own Traccar server and activated Telegram notifications.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t work to define the ChatID in the config file:<entry key='notificator.telegram.chatId'>-1234567890</entry>
in traccar.xml
It only works if I enter the ChatID as an attribute to the user in the Traccar Manager.
I don’t understand this. Can you help me?
It should work in the config file. Make sure you restart after changing config and also make sure you don't override the value in the user attributes. Then if still doesn't work, check logs for errors.
Thank you. It works now. Probably, I didn't delete Telegram ChatIT in all users profiles.
Hi inetsof, in this part (Whatsapp web js comment) you mentioned that you used whatsapp-web.js.
How did you manage to get the code to work? I'm struggling with the traccar <-> API connection. Can you make your code available?
Config file (which is what)
Traccar.xml
Traccar.service
Which file guys?
traccar.xml
Hola @vegellibert, en whatsapp, no se crea bot como en telegram, debes registrar un teléfono, whatsapp-web.js permite simular un whatsapp web sin interface, el mensaje sale del whatsapp que registres, te recomiendo que uses un segundo whatsapp con una línea exclusiva para las notificaciones.
