## Retrieving your chat number from Matterbridge
### Setup
Matterbridge can output your chat number as debug information. Here's how.
- Bring up a bot as described above and retrieve your API token.
- Make to sure to disable privacy mode on the bot.
- Configure Matterbridge as illustrated above
- Join the bot to your Telegram group
### Generate events / output
- Start Matterbridge with your new configuration in debug mode like so: ``` matterbridge -debug -config matterbridge.toml```
- Create traffic in your group, chat up your bot.
- Matterbridge will output debug information, this will look similar to this
```
[0009] DEBUG telegram: <= Message is config.Message{Text:"test from telegram", Channel:"-987654321", Username:"John Doe", UserID:"123456789", Avatar:"", Account:"telegram.mytelegram", Event:"", Protocol:"", Gateway:"", Timestamp:time.Time{wall:0x0, ext:> 0, loc:(*time.Location)(nil)}, ID:"31", Extra:map[string][]interface {}{}}
```
or
```
[0024] DEBUG telegram: => Receiving config.Message{Text:"test from xmpp", Channel:"-987654321", Username:"[xmpp] <userredacted> ", UserID:"example@conference.redacted.com/userredacted", Avatar:"", Account:"xmpp.myxmpp", Event:"", Protocol:"", Gateway:"gateway1", Timestamp:time.Time{wall:0xbeed3ca55451a133, ext:24805708196, loc:(*time.Location)(0x55cad0c84140)}, ID:"", Extra:map[string][]interface {}(nil)}
```
- The large *negative* number in behind ```Channel:``` is your channel number. Go configure the Matterbridge gateway section with it.
