Connecting VKontakte Community

5) Go to the link, at the bottom we see the "social networks" label and the "VKontakte" button. Click it. In the pop-up window, click the "allow" button.

If when entering the VK bot, the start message does not arrive, test sending another start block, for example, text without buttons. To reload the VK bot (i.e. restart from the beginning), send the command 000 (three zeros). If a message without buttons arrives, but with buttons it doesn't, it means that the chat bot function was not activated in VK. For this, in VK, go to the community that you plan to connect to the bot. On the right, go to the management section:

Inside, open the messages section:

Videos not hosted in VK will arrive in the bot as a link.
