Hello! The burning question today: How to find out the chat id of a group or channel in Telegram? There are two answers to it 🙂
Open the browser and enter the link there: https://api.telegram.org/botTOKEN/getChat?chat_id=@link_to_channel_or_group where: – TOKEN is your bot’s token in Telegram. After that you get something like:

where the most important text for you is: ID.
As you can see, everything is simple. Or you can … just go to this link (I sprinkled it in 10 minutes, so forgive me already – there is no particular beauty), enter a link to the channel or group you need (with a dog, please 😉 – lazily compose a regular season), and in half a second you will receive result. You decide.
UPD: I made a site here that will make your life much easier in the matter of “find out the chat id of a group or channel in Telegram”. Come in here. And even made a video about it:
