Projects and Connecting Platforms

How projects work and how to connect Telegram, YouTube, VK and your own website. Access permissions, a custom bot for Telegram, and handling several platforms at once.

A project is the central unit of Telematic: one workspace with a shared language, style and sources, to which you connect publishing platforms. A single material in a project turns into separate versions for every connected platform.

What is configured at the project level

  • Content language β€” all posts and voiceovers come out in it, regardless of the sources' language. If no language is set, the system falls back to the project settings β€” check this field first if posts come out in the "wrong" language.
  • Style and tone β€” instructions for the AI: how to write, what to avoid, how to format.
  • Visual style for images β€” a single preset for generated pictures (29 ready-made styles or your own).
  • Default video settings β€” your own preset for horizontal and vertical videos.

Telegram

  1. Add the Telematic bot as a channel administrator with posting permission.
  2. Enter the channel in the platform settings β€” the system will verify access.

Things to know:

  • Your own bot. If you run many channels or publish frequently, the system bot can hit Telegram's limits (error 429 β€” "too many requests"). In the channel settings you can connect your own bot (created via @BotFather in a minute) β€” then the limits are yours alone.
  • First comment. If the channel has a discussion group, the system can automatically leave the first comment under a post (for example, with a link). The bot must be a member of the discussion group.
  • Long posts. Telegram limits message length: the system either neatly splits the text into parts at paragraph boundaries (as a reply chain) or shortens it with AI β€” the behavior is configurable.

YouTube

Connection goes through official Google authorization (OAuth) β€” your password is never shared with the service, and access can be revoked in your Google account settings at any time.

  • Both regular videos (16:9) and Shorts (9:16) are published; the title, description and thumbnail are generated automatically.
  • For an automatic first comment under a video, you need to grant the corresponding permission when connecting.

VK

For text posts, connecting a community is enough. For posts with images, VK requires authorization as a user who administers the community (via VK ID) β€” this is VK's own restriction: communities cannot upload media with their own key.

Your own website

A project's finished content can be pulled to your website via API β€” that's how our own blog works, for example. Details in "Website Integration via API".

Several platforms in one project

Connect Telegram, YouTube and VK to a single project β€” and every material gets its own version for each platform: a short post with an image for Telegram, an expanded description for YouTube, a text for VK. Platform rules and limits are handled automatically, and you can publish everywhere at once or selectively (see "Publishing and the Calendar").
