How do I rename a Telegram group?
Short answer: You can set chat title in Telegram by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Telegram Set Chat Title action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Chat ID chat_id | string | Required | Chat ID |
Title title | string | Required | Title |
Sample request
{"chat_id": "{{trigger.chat_id}}","title": "{{trigger.title}}"}
Returns
{"ok": true,"result": true}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about Set Chat Title.
What does the Set Chat Title action do in Telegram?
Changes the title of a Telegram group or channel. Requires admin rights with the change-info permission.
What inputs does Set Chat Title require?
Required: Chat ID, Title. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Telegram returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Telegram returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Set Chat Title support batch operations?
Run Set Chat Title inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Telegram's rate limits.
