Use Multiple Bots to speed up

Note

What it multi-client feature and what it does?
This feature shares the Telegram API requests between worker bots to speed up download speed when many users are using the server and to avoid the flood limits that are set by Telegram.

Note

You can add up to 50 bots since 50 is the max amount of bot admins you can set in a Telegram Channel.

To enable multi-client, generate new bot tokens and add it as your config.env with the following key names.

MULTI_TOKEN1: Add your first bot token here.

MULTI_TOKEN2: Add your second bot token here.

you may also add as many as bots you want. (max limit is 50) MULTI_TOKEN3, MULTI_TOKEN4, etc.

Warning

Don't forget to add all these worker bots to the AUTH_CHANNEL for the proper functioning

Generate Session String

Note

Why Session String is needed?
The session string is required to fetch files from the AUTH_CHANNEL due to a restriction in the Telegram API. Only users are allowed to fetch files from channels; bots cannot do so.

Note

Make Sure that you have to Generate the Pyrogram Session String

To generate the Session String use this Colab Tool
