TelegramSend a message in Telegram when a new booking in Square
When a new booking in Square, send a message in Telegram.
Start the 14-day trial, then find it under Templates → Library. It installs into the client you choose, switched off, with its checklist.
Every step, in order
When it happens in the first app, the step runs in the second, with the client’s own account.
- A new booking
- A new appointment, within seconds. The token needs APPOINTMENTS_READ. The customer’s name and email are not in the event: find the customer by its ID in a step.
- Send a message
- Message a chat, group or channel the bot is in.

What each client fills in
- Telegram: Chat ID
- For example -1001234567890 or @channel
The accounts it needs
Each is the client’s own, stored encrypted and never copied between clients. Until one is added the client’s checklist shows it, and nothing runs.
developer.squareup.com → the client’s application (their own account) → Credentials → Production access token. A personal access token for the client’s own account needs no Square review.
In Telegram, message @BotFather → /newbot → copy the token. Add the bot to the client’s group, or have the client message it once.
After you install it
It lands switched off. The client’s checklist holds exactly this:
- Connect the client’s Square, for “A new booking”
- Connect the client’s Telegram, for “Send a message”
- Fill in Telegram: Chat ID (For example -1001234567890 or @channel)
- Confirm with the client: The client is on Square Appointments Plus or Premium. On the free Appointments plan, bookings made in Square’s own dashboard or booking site send no event: only bookings made through the API do.
