Profiles and bots

A profile gives an account or bot a name and its own settings. Use it when you have more than one account, want separate assistant permissions, or work with a bot.

Choose a profileCopy Anchor Link

Put the profile before the command:

tg work config show
max work config show

Without a name, the tools use the default profile. A setting under profiles.work applies to that profile; values under defaults apply when it has no value of its own. Profiles are not separate operating-system users: an assistant with unrestricted file access can still reach other data on that computer.

Switch to a botCopy Anchor Link

Use bot after the profile name:

tg support bot api get-me --json
max support bot api get-my-info --json

These commands require an already connected bot profile. The bot's account and rights come from the messenger, not from your personal account. Bots explains setup and examples.
