Forward Messages from Telegram to Discord via webhook

I hope someone here can assist me with an issue I'm encountering in my Discord bot project. I'm working on a bot that should forward messages sent in a Telegram channel, where the bot has been added, to a Discord server via webhook.

I've properly configured the bot on Telegram and successfully obtained the webhook on Discord. However, I'm unable to get messages sent in the Telegram channel to be forwarded correctly to the Discord server via the webhook.

I've carefully reviewed the documentation for both platforms and followed all necessary steps, but I haven't been able to resolve the issue.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone with experience in this area could lend me a hand or suggest where I might have made errors. Any help or advice would be extremely valuable.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
