 # Getting your Chat ID
 
-The next step will be to get your chat ID. The easiest way I've found to do this is using the test message in your new Bot channel. Go to the following page: `https://api.telegram.org/bot<token>/getUpdates` (where `<token>` is the token you got in the last step). Upon heading to the site, you'll see a JSON-formatted list of information. Look specifically for the table `chat`, which has an `id` field. Copy that ID (including any negative symbols).

+Send a message to the bot using the following format, to get updated JSON.

 Please be aware that if you utilize this feature so you can bot and pass bot checks, you are a bad person and you will be caught eventually. This feature is only to be used so you do not miss any tells for legitimate reasons. Besides, the Imms have other ways to botcheck you, too.
