# Telegram Channels Export Script
This python script allows you to export all the Telegram channels you are a member of, including both public and private channels. The output will contain the channel name, ID, username (if available), and a direct link to the channel.
## Features
- ✅ Exports **all** channels (public & private)
- ✅ Saves **channel name, ID, username, and link**
- ✅ Outputs data in a **CSV file** for easy use
- ✅ Improved error handling and logging
- ✅ Reusable without needing to log in again
## Prerequisites
1. **Get Telegram API Credentials**
- Go to [my.telegram.org](https://my.telegram.org/)
- Log in and navigate to **API Development Tools**
- Create a new application and copy your `api_id` and `api_hash`
2. **Install Dependencies**
- Install `Telethon`, a Telegram API library for Python:
```bash
pip install telethon
```
## Usage
1. **Clone this repository**:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/fd2013/telegram-channels-export.git
cd telegram-channels-export
```
2. **Edit the script to add your API credentials**:
- Open `telegram_channel_export.py` in a text editor.
- Replace the placeholders with your **API ID** and **API Hash**:
```python
API_ID = YOUR_API_ID # Example: 123456
API_HASH = "YOUR_API_HASH" # Example: "abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890"
```
3. **Run the script**:
```bash
python telegram_channel_export.py
```
4. **Login**
- The first time you run the script, you'll need to enter your **Telegram phone number**.
- A **verification code** will be sent to Telegram—enter it in the terminal.
5. **Check the exported file**:
- After running, a file called `telegram_channels.csv` will be created in `C:\Users\YourUsername`, containing:
```csv
Channel Name,Channel ID,Username,Channel Link
Crypto News,123456789,cryptonews,https://t.me/cryptonews
Private Group A,987654321,Private,Private
Tech Updates,567890123,techupdates,https://t.me/techupdates
```
## Notes
- **Public channels** will have a clickable link in the format `https://t.me/username`.
- **Private channels** do not have usernames and will be labeled as `"Private"` in the link column.
- The script creates a session file (`telegram_channel_export.session`), so you **don’t need to log in every time**.
- If you have **Two-Step Verification (2FA) enabled**, the script will prompt you for your password.
- If you want to log in with a new account, delete the `.session` file and rerun the script.
