#Scheduled messages

Scheduled messages help a group or channel send plain-text messages at fixed intervals.

Each scheduled message can have its own text, interval, enabled state, optional topic ID, and optional bottom URL buttons.

#What you can configure

• Message text
• Repeat type: minutes or hours
• Repeat interval
• Enabled or disabled state
• Optional topic ID
• Optional bottom URL buttons

This is useful for recurring reminders, group rules, channel notices, or periodic links.

#How to use

1. Open /manage.
2. Select the group or channel.
3. Open Scheduled Messages.
4. Add a scheduled message.
5. Enter the message text.
6. Choose the repeat type and interval.
7. Optionally enter a topic ID.
8. Optionally add bottom URL buttons.
9. Save the message and enable it when ready.

#Topic ID

If the target group uses forum topics, you can enter a topic ID to send the scheduled message into a specific topic.

Leave the topic ID empty to send the message to the default chat stream.

#Bottom buttons

You can attach URL buttons under each scheduled message.

Each button needs:

• Button text
• Button URL starting with http:// or https://

Buttons are optional. If no buttons are configured, the scheduled message will be sent as normal text.

#Notes and limits

• Scheduled messages are plain text
• Each group or channel can configure up to 3 scheduled messages
• Message text can be up to 1000 characters
• A message can have up to 20 bottom buttons
• Choose a longer interval if the message is visible to many users, so the chat is not disturbed too often
