Share memory between telegram group topics and direct messages with bot
✅Solved
I'm running one bot on version 2026.2.26 on mac mini.
When I talk to the bot in a direct message, it seems this information is unknown to the same bot when I talk to it in a telegram group topic.
My setup is so that I have the telegram group only with the bot. So basically for me, talking to the bot in the group topics or via direct message should be the same. The topics help me to strucutre different area's for which I use the bot. And I want the bot to know about everything, everywhere.
I read that this is not the case by default.
How do I set it up that all topics in the group chat and direct messages share and store in the same memory?
I read that there is some settings needed for this, like a sandbox setting?
Can you help me with this?
