API README

Search posts in a channel

Search posts in a channel by keyword (case-insensitive). Uses Telegram's server-side search over the full channel history when the MTProto backend is enabled (data.backend = "mtproto"). otherwise falls back to best-effort local filtering over recent history (data.backend = "web"). It is suitable for telegram workflows.

Capability

Search posts in a channel by keyword (case-insensitive). Uses Telegram's server-side search over the full channel history when the MTProto backend is enabled (data.backend = "mtproto"). otherwise falls back to best-effort local filtering over recent history (data.backend = "web"). It helps applications, agents, and automated workflows turn that capability into repeatable tasks and useful downstream experiences.

Common use cases

  • Search and discover relevant records for research, monitoring, and product experiences.
  • Create repeatable integrations that pass structured results to downstream business systems.
  • Support scheduled jobs, internal tools, and agent workflows with structured results.
