Integration is a Qontak Omnichannel feature where customers can connect various platforms with chat panels such as email or Telegram.

Important
Only users with the Admin role can perform the integration. If you do not have an account with the Admin role, you can contact our support team at support-qontak@mekari.com.

The messages that enter the Telegram channel on Omnichannel are only messages that come through the link, not through the phone number. To integrate the chat panel with Telegram on the Web, you need to follow these steps:
