I have a problem adding a bot to a private broadcast channel on Telegram. The issue is that the bot is added as an administrator with all the permissions, but it's unable to invoke the /start command in the broadcast channel chat.

I wanted to add my private bot to my private broadcast channel to create a whitelist for the bot.

Hey @Nooizer I’ve never tried it, but unless I’m mistaken, Manychat won’t work in channels and groups, it only works with 1-to-1 conversations between bots and user accounts.

What do I need to do to control access to this bot? So that only people approved by me have access to it?

What you can do is protect the content, like this:
