red exclamation point next to the telegram service device in Admin console

[baabm]

It took me a while to get notifications working with the notification node server the way I want (no experience with this type of software). 

Then I thought it'd be a good idea to try to implement telegram (I also have no experience with that). I tried to follow the instructions, but am not sure I did it correctly. (although there were no errors reported while doing it. 

It took me a while to find how to add the bot to the configuration page of the notification node server, but I got through it with no errors reported.

When I look at Admin console, I see the telegram service right under UD mobile but it has a red exclamation point icon (which I believe is an error). And when I try to add a notification to a program, I don't see where telegram is selectable. 

I know I'll probably have to provide some data, but at this point I don't know what to provide.

TIA

Since no one offered any assistance with fixing the red exclamation point, can someone help me remove the service entirely.

thanks

Hi @baabm,

I'm not sure what you mean by the "Telegram Service device"

My Admin console view is attached. Where do I click to find the Telegram Service Device??

[baabm]

it is something that you have to add...

it is a service that works with the notification node server that is supposed to make it easier (I think) to set up notifications. (I really don't understand it but wanted to try it.) So I followed the instructions for how to install in and it doesn't seem to work because it has the red exclamation point next to it. No one has helped me figure out what is wrong, so now I just want to delete it, but I can't figure out how to do that either. Here is a screenshot.

After I wrote the note above, I decided to look around at the PG3 page. there I found that I had 3 nodes, so I clicked on it to discover 1 of them was the Telegram node and there was an x icon next to it. I clicked on the x and it started to delete the telegram node. I restarted Admin console and it was gone...

Did you properly configure the service in PG3 under the Configuration tab for the plugin? The instructions are also on that page.

Sorry for the delay, I must have missed your post while I was traveling.   Yes, the Telegram service is tricky to setup, I'd like to make it cleaner in the future when I have some time.  If you really want/need Telegram then try to set it up again and PM me the file from 'Download Log Package' if you encounter issues.

Thanks for the response, but if you read further in the post, I managed to remove the telegram service- but I’m not sure how I did it. 
thanks

Yes, I did, which is why I said it you still want/need Telegram then try to set it up again and we can see what the issue was.

I’m using about a half dozen notifications through the notification node server and they seem to work fine with my iphone. At this point, I’m not sure if there is any value in trying to implement telegram (or even pushover).
