Full record for one channel by @username: subscribers, category, language, trust score, description.

Full-text search over recent posts from catalogued channels (1k+ view posts). Returns text snippets, channel and view counts.
telegram
search_telegram
Full-text search over the tgden catalog (1.2M+ channels, 236k+ group chats, 154k+ bots) with subscriber/member counts, categories and trust scores. Needs no Telegram account — this is the public catalog, so it finds communities the user has NOT joined. Use type to restrict to one entity kind.
