Creating a bot

Open telegram and open a new chat with bot "BotFather"

Send a message with command /newbot to start a new bot creation and follow the steps to give it a name.

If you are successful, you'll get a message at the end that the new bot was successfully created and will include a token for the HTTP API, put this in the relevant field in your VeeamNotify conf.json

Getting your chat ID

Next, to get your chat ID, start a message with command "/start" to "RawDataBot"

This will return a lot of unnecessary information however we're only interested in the "id" field under "chat", this will be your chat ID, put this in the relevant field in your VeeamNotify conf.json
