This repository is designed for anyone who wants to keep their Telegram bot active daily without paying for a server or knowing how to code.

GitHub Actions will automatically check your bots every day and ensure they are working. If any bot has an issue, you'll be notified through your primary bot.

Why am I not relying on a solution like forwarding the BotToken to @LaylaBot and letting it handle everything? Because it only runs when you send the /start command. It responds to your message, but otherwise, it remains inactive until you send something or a new update arrives. Instead, it's better to make API calls daily, such as getMe, getUpdates, and sendMessage, ensuring the bot stays active and performs tasks regularly.

If you don’t have a GitHub account, you should create one to manage your bot’s automation. Having your own account ensures that you keep your API tokens safe and in your control.

However, I plan to add a bot like @MakeAliveBot, which will automatically perform these tasks daily for all registered bots and send updates to their owners. Unfortunately, it’s offline right now, but I’ll update it when it’s available.

Until then, the best option is to fork this repository and run your own instance on GitHub.

✅ No Server Needed – Runs on GitHub for free!
✅ Easy Setup – Just fork, add variables, and enable workflows.
✅ Supports Multiple Bots – Simply list multiple bot tokens.
✅ Error Notifications – Get alerts if a bot stops working.
✅ Flexible Scheduling – Adjust the workflow schedule anytime.
✅ Preserve Your Favorite Bot – Don’t let your username taken by @BotSupport or @Durov!

1️⃣ Fetches bot details via getMe API
2️⃣ Gets bot updates using getUpdates API
3️⃣ Saves bot info in Bot<id>.txt
4️⃣ Sends the status to your Telegram channel (CHAT_ID)
5️⃣ Notifies you (OWNER_ID) if any bot has issues

Each bot works independently, and if a bot fails, the primary bot alerts you! 🚨

Click the "Fork" button at the top-right of this repository to create your own copy.

If you want to edit locally, use:

git clone https://github.com/ankit-chaubey/MakeBotAlive.git

After forking the repository, go to Settings > Secrets and Variables > Actions and add the following variables:

1️⃣ Find CHAT_ID

• If it's a private channel, use @WhichIdBot and send /start and then select your channel to get the chat_id.

2️⃣ Find OWNER_ID

• Similarly use @WhichIdBot and send /start again and then select your account to get the owner_id. and it will show your Telegram user ID.

3️⃣ Get BOT_TOKENS

• Create bots via @BotFather.
• Copy each bot’s token and add them in the list separated by spaces.
• The first bot will be used to notify you of errors.

If you have three bots, add this in BOT_TOKENS: 123456:ABCDEF 789012:GHIJKL 345678:MNOPQR

• 123456:ABCDEF → Primary bot (for error notifications).
• 789012:GHIJKL → Second bot.
• 345678:MNOPQR → Third bot.

🔹 The first bot in BOT_TOKENS acts as the primary bot for sending error alerts.

After forking:

• 1️⃣ Go to Actions tab
• 2️⃣ Click "Enable Workflows" (only needed for the first time)

This will automatically run at 00:00 UTC daily.
