What Appointment Booking does
Organize appointment requests in a clear customer flow and a single owner dashboard. The template packages this job into a guided Telegram conversation, so the owner can configure the service and users can reach the primary action without learning a separate dashboard.
Current template capabilities
- Services and slots: part of the current template workflow and exposed through its guided Telegram interface.
- Confirm and cancel: part of the current template workflow and exposed through its guided Telegram interface.
- Temporary closure: part of the current template workflow and exposed through its guided Telegram interface.
- Booking export: part of the current template workflow and exposed through its guided Telegram interface.
The exact controls shown to a user depend on their role, the bot configuration and Telegram permissions. Features that interact with channels, members, files or payments only work after the owner completes the relevant connection and grants the minimum required permissions.
How to create and test the bot
- Open @MANSIABOT in Telegram and start the bot-creation flow.
- Create a bot with BotFather if needed, then provide its token only through the authorized factory flow.
- Select Appointment Booking, finish the template settings and open the new bot from the owner account.
- Configure the visible content and operational options before sharing the link.
- Test the complete journey from a separate, ordinary Telegram account. Confirm permissions, limits, error messages and owner notifications.
Practical operating guidance
Keep the welcome message short: explain the benefit, name the first action and state any important limit before asking the user for data. Use labels that describe the result of a button. Test edge cases such as an empty result, an invalid input, a missing permission and a repeated request.
Collect only information the workflow needs. Do not paste bot tokens, private keys, passwords or unrelated personal data into user-facing fields. Where the template relies on generated, extracted or third-party information, verify consequential output against its original source.
Limits to confirm before launch
Telegram file limits, administrator permissions, external service availability and owner-configured thresholds can affect the final behavior. The values stated in this guide reflect the template memory reviewed on 2026-07-12; the running bot remains the final place to confirm a limit before a production launch.
Frequently asked questions

The bot records the request first; the owner can then confirm it or change its status.
