n8n-nodes-telegram-channel-scraper
An n8n community node that runs the Apify Telegram Channel Scraper Actor directly from your workflows.
Scrape any public Telegram channel with no login and no API key — get every post, view count, media, link and timestamp in clean JSON or Excel. No phone, no account, no token needed. Built for OSINT, social monitoring and AI agents.
n8n is a fair-code licensed workflow automation platform.
Installation · Operations · Credentials · Usage · Resources
Installation
Follow the community nodes installation guide in the n8n docs.
In n8n: Settings → Community Nodes → Install and enter:
n8n-nodes-telegram-channel-scraperOperations
- Run Scraper — runs the Telegram Channel Scraper Actor and returns one item per channel post with text, views, media and timestamp.
Credentials
This node runs the Actor on Apify infrastructure billed to your own Apify account, so you need an Apify API token.
- Create a free account at apify.com.
- Copy your API token from Settings → Integrations (or use OAuth2).
- In n8n, create an Apify API credential and paste your token.
You only pay Apify's standard pay-per-result price for the runs you trigger — there is no extra charge for using this node.
Usage
- Add the Apify Telegram Channel Scraper node to your workflow.
- Select your Apify credential.
- Enter the public Telegram channel username or URL and the max number of messages.
- Execute. Each result is returned as a separate item — pipe it straight into Google Sheets, a CRM, a database, or an AI agent.
This node is also usable as a tool by n8n AI Agents, so an agent can pull live Telegram channel activity on demand.
Compatibility
- Requires n8n with community node support (self-hosted, or n8n Cloud where verified community nodes are enabled).
- Node.js >= 18.10.
