You need to set up a webhook for your Telegram bot to receive updates. There are two methods to set the webhook.

Set the webhook using the route:

php artisan serve

Open your browser and navigate to:

http://localhost:8000/set-webhook/{your-telegram-bot-token}

If everything is set up correctly, you should see a message: "Webhook is set successfully.".

Set the webhook using an artisan command:

php artisan telegram:set-webhook

Your bot should now be up and running, ready to handle file uploads and provide downloadable links.
