This release introduces Telegram integration for seamless incident notifications and enhanced SMS reliability. Now you can receive real-time alerts directly in Telegram for both Status Page incidents and Monitoring events. Additionally, multi-part SMS support ensures complete delivery of long messages by splitting them into manageable segments.

Real-time notifications are now available through Telegram, providing instant alerts for:
- Status Page incidents – immediate notifications when services go down or are restored
- Monitoring events – alerts for uptime monitoring checks and diagnostics
- Custom webhook support – integrate with your existing Telegram bots
Telegram notifications include rich formatting with incident details, status updates, and quick action buttons for incident management.
Enhanced SMS Reliability

The notification preferences panel has been enhanced with:
- Telegram bot configuration – easy setup with bot token and chat ID
- Message template customization – tailor notifications for each channel
- Delivery testing – verify notification setup before going live
- Fallback routing – automatic alternative channels if delivery fails
