Home Assistant removes the legacy Telegram notify platform, ending its named notification actions. Existing YAML entries receive a repair notice directing owners to the Telegram bot integration.
Each chat ID should be added as a Telegram bot subentry, with ordinary messages sent through notify.send_message. Telegram bot’s own actions remain the route for photos, documents, keyboards and other options. The old platform: telegram entries also need to be removed from the notify section of configuration.yaml.
