Hi Hass’s friends, I’ve been trying telegram polling for several days, but I do not want to go … I do not know what to do for you to ask for help … here is my configuration.yaml, Id and Api keys are correct.
In check validate, if checked ok but in home assistant log:

Try comment out api_key from notify. Also you shouldn’t post your api key with you chat id… you might find strange messages turning up in the middle of the night
Your api key is wrong. There are meant to be more numbers in front of it. It should be something like api_key: xxxxxxxx:AAHna1pbqlt2VplTgrrYlyQCf4Eb_VV4zuU
However, telegram fails to initialize and I’m seeing this in the log…

The issue with mine was that I had a test.py file in my .homeassistant directory that had a syntax error in it… Apparently telegram loads up every file in your home-assistant directory and if anything in there has errors, it will blow up the telegram initialization.
Thank you SO much for posting your solution, @broox! I just ran into the same problem after Telegram had been working flawlessly for a long while. Out of nowhere, a restart of hassio produced these failure errors.
The problem for me ended up being that I needed some extra things quoted in my customize-glob.yaml file. The crazy part is that the configuration validation said all was well with no errors in the log. I guess the Telegram component is rather touchy, like you said.
