How it works
The quiz can open right inside your Telegram bot: the bot gets a menu button, and when people tap it, they answer the quiz right there.
You do not need to code a bot: just add the quiz link in the bot settings through @BotFather. Leads arrive the same way as from your website.

Do not confuse this with Telegram notifications
Here the quiz opens from the bot. If what you want is to receive leads in Telegram, that is a different setup: how to get lead notifications in Telegram.
Copy the quiz link
In the quiz editor, open the “Publish” tab → “Social media” subtab → Telegram card → “Connect”. Copy the ready-made link we give you.
Create a bot or open the one you have
Message @BotFather. A new bot is created with the
If you already have one, send
/newbot command: it will ask for the bot name and username.If you already have one, send
/mybots and pick it from the list.Set up the menu button
In the bot settings, choose Bot Settings → Menu Button → Configure menu button. Send the link you copied and then the button text, for example “Take the quiz”.
Check it
Open the bot in Telegram: the button with your text appears next to the message field. Tap it and the quiz opens. Complete it, and the lead will appear in the “Leads” section of LeadForms.
Other ways to use the link
You can send the same link in a message, pin it in a channel or put it in the bot description: the quiz opens in one tap.
FAQ
Restart the bot with the /start command, or close and reopen the chat: Telegram caches the menu.
The menu button is the intended way. Opening the quiz automatically on /start requires your own bot with custom code, and LeadForms does not do that.
No. In this case LeadForms does not connect to the bot: the bot simply opens the link.
