# Devii on Telegram Chat with your own Devii assistant from Telegram. Once you connect your Telegram account, the DevPlace bot talks to the same Devii that runs in the web terminal: it operates your DevPlace account through your API key, answers in markdown, shows a typing indicator while it works, updates a single message as it thinks instead of flooding the chat, and can read images you send. ## Connect your account 1. Open your [profile](/profile) and find the **Telegram** card in the sidebar. 2. Click **Request pairing code**. A four digit code appears. It is valid for a limited time (one hour by default). 3. Open the DevPlace bot in Telegram and send it the four digit code. 4. The bot replies confirming the connection. You can now chat with Devii directly. The code is single use. If it expires or you lose it, request a fresh one from your profile. To disconnect, click **Disconnect** on the same card, which unlinks the Telegram chat from your account. ## What you can do - Ask Devii anything you would ask in the web terminal: it can read your feed, manage posts, projects, gists and files, search the documentation, and more, all on your own account. - Send a photo and Devii can see it and respond to it. - Long answers are split automatically so they always fit Telegram's message limits. - Markdown in Devii's replies is rendered with Telegram formatting (bold, italics, code, links and code blocks). ## Privacy and limits Your Telegram conversation is a separate thread from the web terminal, but it shares the same Devii memory, tools, and your rolling 24 hour AI usage limit. Only private chats are supported, and the bot only ever acts for the account that paired with it. Disconnecting removes the link immediately. If the bot does not respond, the Telegram service may be turned off for this deployment. The service is managed by administrators and is not enabled by default.
