## telegram/channel-posts

`GET /v1/telegram/channel-posts`

A channel's posts, one page at a time, with text, time, views, reactions and forwards, plus the channel summary.

*Telegram channel posts*

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `handle` | yes | Public channel handle without the @ — e.g. `telegram` |
| `cursor` | no | Opaque cursor from the previous page |
| `dry_run` | no | Read a zero-credit estimate without fetching sources, running AI, or reserving credits. Cache status is a snapshot, not a guarantee at execution. — e.g. `1` |

**Cost:** 2 credits at list price per successful uncached response; variable-cost operations may quote or settle a different charge. Confirmed uncharged or refunded failures report zero. Pending reconciliation can report credits_used:null; retain request_id and the original idempotency key.
