Scraping methodsOnce you've configured the first settings and added the first account, you can create a members list.
What is a members list?
The members list is the list of users that will be added to the destination group or channel.With Doublegram, you can use your Telegram accounts to navigate through the groups and channels which you are a member of and add their members to your members list.
- Which scraping methods are available?
- Standard: A request to get the members of a group or channel is sent to the Telegram servers. This method is comparable to the one used by the official Telegram clients when you open the members list of a group or channel.
- Recent users: A request to get the members of a group or channel is sent to the Telegram servers. This method is comparable to the one used by the official Telegram clients when you open the members list of a group or channel. The difference is that only the users that have been active recently will be returned.
- Group members by letter: It's like when you search for a user in a group or channel by letter. The members list is built by sending a request to the Telegram servers for each letter of the alphabet. This method is slower than the others.
You can combine the scraping methods to get the best results. For example, you can use the "Standard" method to get the first 1000 members and then use the "Recent users" method to get the most active users. Each method will problably return different users, so you can get more users in total.
When you're scraping the members of a group or channel, Doublegram will automatically remove the duplicates from the members list. This way, you can use multiple scraping methods without worrying about adding the same user multiple times. And you can even scrape from different groups or channels and Doublegram will always remove the duplicates from the members list.
