dateFrom and dateTo take ISO dates like 2026-10-01 and the Telegram Channel Scraper keeps messages posted inside that window, both ends inclusive. Leave either empty for no bound.
Up to 10,000 messages per channel per run. maxMessages caps each channel, and 0 means no cap, so pair it with a date window on busy channels.
No. The Telegram Channel Scraper reads the public web preview of the channel. No API key, phone number, login or session is needed.
The Telegram Channel Scraper bills $0.005 per message delivered inside the window and nothing for messages it skips or for channel metadata.
