Step 1: Obtain Your Telegram User ID

Get your Telegram User ID from @userinfobot.

Step 2: Generate API URL

Create your API URL:

https://getintotouch.sh20raj.com/api.php?id=YOUR_TELEGRAM_USER_ID
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Instead of YOUR_TELEGRAM_USER_ID you can also use YOUR_TELEGRAM_GROUP_OR_CHANNEL_ID but for that you have to add GetIntoTouch Bot to your channel or group.
(Use Web Telegram to get the id => See URL while opening the channel i.e. -86498264 )

Step 3: Create an HTML Form

Here's a sample form:

<form id="messageForm" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
  <input type="hidden" name="telegram_user_id" value="YOUR_TELEGRAM_USER_ID">
  <label for="name">Name:</label>
  <input type="text" id="name" name="name" required>
  <label for="message">Message:</label>
  <textarea id="message" name="message" rows="5" required></textarea>
  <label for="photo">Upload Photo/File:</label>
  <input type="file" id="photo" name="photo">
  <button type="submit">Send Message</button>
</form>
<div id="status"></div>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Step 4: JavaScript to Handle Form Submission

Use the Fetch API to send form data:

document.getElementById('messageForm').addEventListener('submit', async function(event) {
  event.preventDefault();
  const formData = new FormData(this);

  try {
    const response = await fetch('https://getintotouch.sh20raj.com/api.php?id=YOUR_TELEGRAM_USER_ID', {
      method: 'POST',
      body: formData
    });
    const result = await response.json();
    document.getElementById('status').innerText = result.message || 'Form submitted successfully!';
  } catch (error) {
    document.getElementById('status').innerText = 'An error occurred. Please try again.';
  }
});
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
