This is core to the plugin's functionality and only runs once you enter a Bot Token in TG Manager \u2192 Settings.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>What is sent, and when:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>When an order is placed or its status changes, the order details (order number, status, items, totals) and the customer's Telegram Chat ID are sent to <code>https:\/\/api.telegram.org\/bot&lt;your-token&gt;\/sendMessage<\/code> (and <code>\/sendPhoto<\/code> for product images) so the notification can be delivered.<\/li>\n<li>When a customer messages your bot, Telegram forwards that message (chat ID, first\/last name, username, message text) to your site's webhook URL (<code>https:\/\/yoursite.com\/?wtm_free_webhook=1&amp;key=&lt;your-site-secret&gt;<\/code>), which the plugin sanitizes and stores locally in two custom database tables (<code>wp_wtm_users<\/code>, <code>wp_wtm_chats<\/code>) so conversations and registered customers can be tracked. The <code>key<\/code> parameter is a secret generated on your own site at activation and is required for the webhook to accept a request.<\/li>\n<li>When you click \"Set webhook\" \/ \"Delete webhook\" or the bot connection status is checked, a request is sent to <code>https:\/\/api.telegram.org\/bot&lt;your-token&gt;\/setWebhook<\/code>, <code>\/deleteWebhook<\/code>, or <code>\/getMe<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>No data is sent to any server operated by the plugin author.
