The Telegram profile, 1 result

A ready-to-run Telegram Profile Scraper input: The Telegram profile, 1 result.

Updated October 27, 2026

What this example returns

This example returns up to 1 result.

The dataset’s “Profiles” view shows 12 columns: query, status, type, username, title, description, member_count, online_count, monthly_users, verified, photo_url, and source_url. See every output field.

What each setting does

The input this example runs Telegram Profile Scraper with. “Try this input” opens it in the console, where you can run it as-is or change any field first.

Telegram usernames or URLs telegram_url

telegram

One per line: a username (telegram), an @handle (@BotFather), or a t.me link (https://t.me/telegram, https://t.me/s/telegram, t.me/+inviteCode). Duplicates and different spellings of the same name are collapsed into one row. Inline lists work up to about 600 names; use the file link below for longer lists.

Maximum profiles maxResults

5

Stop after this many profile rows. 0 means no limit.

Default: 1000 → this example uses 5

Skip names that do not exist skipNotFound

No

Do not save rows for usernames that Telegram does not resolve. They are not charged either.

Verified only verifiedOnly

No

Keep only accounts that show Telegram's verified badge.

  "telegram_url": [

  "skipNotFound": false,
  "verifiedOnly": false
}

What it costs

About $0.0021 for 1 result

An estimate: 1 × $0.0021 per profile (One Telegram profile row saved to the dataset, including names that do not exist). A run is charged for the events it reports, so one that finds fewer result costs less. Platform usage is included in the event price.

When to use this example

From the Telegram Profile Scraper readme:

Why is a field empty?

Telegram only shows some fields for some types. Only channels and groups have a member count, only some bots show monthly users, and users with no photo have no photo_url. Missing values are null.
