YOU CAN'T DO THAT. But, you can do the same with username -

https://telegram.me/Telegram_Username_Here

For updating the information - telegram:// no longer works on the latest chrome browser of pc version, instead of this, use tg:// which works great on all devices.

To share with Telegram.me, you have the following URL options...

https://t.me/share/url?url={url}&text={text}
https://telegram.me/share/url?url={url}&text={text}
tg://msg_url?url={url}&text={text}

Take a look at the official API source: Core.Telegram.org: Widgets -> Sharing Button. They suggest the t.me format. It seems like telegramUsername format, or any format indicating a user or a phone number, is not supported according to the documentation.

You may share:

  • url : The URL you want to share.
  • text : Text to accompany the URL you want to share.
