Are there any plans for integrating Telegram Login as an OAuth provider? Or someone that could do a plugin? š
It has been released today, I tested and itās really practical:
> **[Telegram Login for Websites](https://telegram.org/blog/login)**
>
> The Login Widget offers a frictionless way to authorize users on your website and ask for permission to contact them on Telegram.

I attach some screenshots of how it works:

To be precise itās not an implementation of the oauth protocol. Very interesting anyway.

By the way, Iāve implemented [Discourse SSO](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true) provider for Telegram Login, basing on the code from my [SAML SSO provider](https://meta.discourse.org/t/saml-authentication-proxy-for-discourse-sso/27864):
[https://github.com/kirushik/discourse\_telegram\_auth/](https://github.com/kirushik/discourse_telegram_auth/)
Also available from DockerHub, `docker pull kirushik/discourse_telegram_auth`.
Currently itās completely untested, and lacks any documentation ā but bugreports and feature requests are welcome.

Any preview or demo? š

Well, itās available on the forum Iāve written it for ā but itās a special-interest group in Russian, so I donāt think sharing it here will be a good idea.
Meanwhile, using Telegram as SSO provider is not what most people want ā so I think Iād spend some time turning my code in a proper auth pluginā¦

It would be great if something like that could be implemented. I.e. login/signup on Discourse site thru telegram.
Iāve found that normal users are not able to login/signup to my forum simply because they never remember their emails ID and PWs. They just get someone to create an email account when they setup their new android phone, and then afterwards they never sign out or sign in to the same.

Any progress there, just in case?
I was interested in making our site users to be able to create account and login thru telegram. This way they can dispense with email id/pw, and can create account and login with just their mobile number (and telegram app).

Iām also curious on this. Has anyone set it up successfully? I see [both forks](https://github.com/kirushik/discourse_telegram_auth/network/members) have not received updates since April of 2018.

Would love to see this working, we have over 200,000 subscribers on Telegram and this would help us a lot.

Well, the code is still there, and nothing should be _broken_ in it (give or take the outdated and potentially vulnerable dependencies).
I no longer believe that abusing Discourseās SSO APIs for logging in with Telegram is the right way to go, though (thus the repo is archived).
Much better solution would be a plugin adding a Telegram button to the supported auth options on the login popup/screen ā but this would require quite a different approach, and Iām not aware of anyone trying to do this (even if it is 100% possible, and I remember seeing other plugins with similar functionality using other login networks somewhere out there)

@mjsir911 do you intend to continue working on this plug-in? Besides the issues mentioned in the github rep that would be great to have the ability to fetch the uniqueid and not the Name field, and the username. Useful for a future flow. I can set it as a job in the #Marketplace if anyone is up for it.

I agree with you @Mr.X_Mr.X. I also wanted to ask @mjsir911 how can I remove the line for entering an email address when registering through a Telegram bot? In my case, I chose this plugin so that people donāt have to go through extra steps (especially entering their email address) to register. When I was going to install this plugin, I was sure that email would not be requested ā¹

I got it to work! šš»
But, when I click āLog in with Telegramā on Discourse, I get sent to _**[mysite.com/auth/telegram](http://mysite.com/auth/telegram)**_ - and it looks like this:
**Do you know if that site is set from the plugin or what?** I canāt edit the CSS either, as the page is outside the scope of themesā¦

Hi folks, Iāve been trying to redesign the plugin too, but no luck.
This old version of the plugin also does not work.
I guess Iāll have to find someone to write it from scratchā¦
For me it is fundamentally important that all accounts have mandatory authorization and confirmed login via Telegram. If anyone knows the solution - please write.
