# Telegram Channel Engagement Snapshot

**Use case:** 

Compare Telegram channels side by side: the latest 100 posts per channel with views, reactions, paid Stars, media type and subscriber count. Good for competitor benchmarking, picking channels for ads or partnerships, and finding what content performs. Replace the example channels with your own and export to Excel, CSV or JSON. No login. About $0.10 per 100 posts.

## Input

```json
{
  "channels": [
    "durov",
    "telegram",
    "bloomberg"
  ],
  "maxPostsPerChannel": 100,
  "postedAfter": "",
  "searchQuery": "",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "channel": {
    "label": "Channel",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "date": {
    "label": "Date",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "text": {
    "label": "Text",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "views": {
    "label": "Views",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "totalReactions": {
    "label": "Reactions",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "mediaType": {
    "label": "Media",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "url": {
    "label": "Post",
    "format": "string"
  }
}
```

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/octopull/telegram-channel-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
