LicenseChain

Telegram & Discord Bots

Let your users validate licenses, check their plan, and get support directly in Telegram or Discord. No separate login—link your Dashboard account for full access.

Why use the bots?

  • Self-service: Users validate keys and see tier/expiry without opening the Dashboard.
  • Support: Open tickets and get help from the same place they already chat.
  • Trust: Same API and verification logic as your app; webhooks use HMAC-SHA256.

Telegram Bot

Features

  • Validate license key in-chat
  • Display plan/tier and expiry
  • Support tickets and help
  • Link Telegram to your Dashboard account for full access

Setup

  1. Create an app and get your API key in the Dashboard.
  2. Configure the bot with your API key and (optional) webhook secret for HMAC verification.
  3. Users start the bot and can validate keys; link your Telegram to the Dashboard for admin features.

The bot calls the same /v1/verify endpoint. For webhook events (e.g. license created), verify the X-LicenseChain-Signature header with HMAC-SHA256 and constant-time comparison—see Webhook Setup.

Discord Bot

Features

  • Validate license in Discord (slash commands or DMs)
  • Show plan and status
  • Support and tickets
  • HMAC webhook verification (same as Telegram)

Setup

  1. Get your API key from the Dashboard.
  2. Invite the bot to your server and configure API key and webhook secret.
  3. Users can validate keys and check status; link Discord to Dashboard for full access.

Same API and security model as the Telegram bot. Ideal for game or dev communities that already use Discord.

Security

Both bots use the LicenseChain API with your API key. Never expose the key to end users. For webhooks (e.g. from Dashboard or Seller-API), verify X-LicenseChain-Signature with your webhook secret using HMAC-SHA256 and a constant-time comparison—see Webhook Setup and Webhooks concept.
