Hi I am trying to build a website login system where users are able to log in using their telegram. I would like to achieve this workflow:
I have issues with steps 2-3 where my bot can send them a direct message (not in a group chat) with only their username. I am aware that sendMessage method in the Telegram bot API requires a chat_id and that a user_id is also suitable. However, I do not know how to get the user_id with just the user's username.
That's not possible with the Bot API. You'd have to use a userbot for that. Note however, that TG provides a native login widget that you can use instead.
