Set group or chat
By default when using telegram-upload without specifying the recipient or sender, telegram-upload will use your personal
chat. However you can define the 👨 destination. For file upload the argument is --to <entity>. For example:
$ telegram-upload --to telegram.me/joinchat/AAAAAEkk2WdoDrB4-Q8-gg video.mkv
You can download files from a specific chat using the –from <entity> parameter. For example:
$ telegram-download --from username
You can see all the possible values for the entity in the documentation.


Split & join files
If you try to upload a file that exceeds the maximum supported by Telegram by default, an error will occur. But you
can enable ✂ split mode to upload multiple files:
$ telegram-upload --large-files split large-video.mkv
Files split using split can be rejoined on download using:
$ telegram-download --split-files join
Find more help in the telegram-upload documentation.


Delete on success
The --delete-on-success option allows you to ❌ delete the Telegram message after downloading the file. This is
useful to send files to download to your saved messages and avoid downloading them again. You can use this option to
download files on your computer away from home.


Configuration
Credentials are saved in ~/.config/telegram-upload.json and ~/.config/telegram-upload.session. You must make
sure that these files are secured. You can copy these 📁 files to authenticate telegram-upload on more machines, but
it is advisable to create a session file for each machine.

variables) or configuring a proxy.
