This node allows to create a persistent shortcuts menu in a Telegram bot. It’s only possible to specify commands (i.e. `/my_command`) along with a simple description.
There’s no need to connect this node with a `Telegram Receiver node` or a `Telegram Sender node`, its generally connect to a Node-RED `Inject node` which is configured to fire when the flow starts.
It’s possible to create the Telegram menu programmatically in an upstream `Function node`
```javascript
return {
...msg,
commands: [
{
command: '/command1',
description: 'Command 1'
},
{
command: '/command2',
description: 'Command 2'
}
]
};
```
