Complete Guide to Exporting US Telegram Data (tgid): From Number Screening to Exporting Telegram User IDs

In overseas customer acquisition, community management, and B2B SaaS promotion, exporting US Telegram data (tgid) is a highly frequent and core requirement. tgid (Telegram user ID) is the unique numeric identifier for each Telegram user. With it, you can interface with the Bot API for precision private messaging, user segmentation, data cleaning, and CRM system integration.

Many operations teams have large quantities of US phone numbers but lack the ability to batch-validate their effectiveness and export tgid. This article uses the KK-DATA number screening platform as an example to explain the complete process from number preparation, submission of screening tasks, to exporting US Telegram data (tgid), including data quality optimization and best practices.

What is tgid? Why is exporting US Telegram data tgid crucial for overseas customer acquisition?

tgid is the unique numeric ID that Telegram assigns to each registered user (similar to WeChat’s OpenID). It consists purely of numbers and does not change with username, nickname, or phone number.

In the US market, the value of exporting tgid is especially prominent:

• Precision messaging: Through the Telegram Bot API, you can send messages to specific users using tgid, unrestricted by username searches.
• User profile segmentation: Combined with activity detection and gender recognition, you can tag tgids by categories like “high-activity male users” or “active in the last 7 days” for segmented marketing.
• Cross-platform data association: tgid can be associated with data from other platforms (e.g., WhatsApp, CRM) to complete user profiles.
• Combat frequent bans: tgid is more stable than usernames or phone numbers. Even if a number is deactivated, the tgid remains usable for user identification for a period.

Therefore, exporting US Telegram data tgid is a critical step for overseas teams transitioning from raw numbers to actionable user assets.

What preparations are needed before exporting US Telegram data tgid?

Before getting started, ensure the following resources are in place:

• KK-DATA account: Log in to the console at https://app.kkdata.cc/ and complete registration.
• USDT balance: Top up at least approximately 50 USDT (TRC20) into your account for per-record fees.
• List of US phone numbers to screen: You can generate them for free using KK-DATA’s “Global Number Generation” feature, or upload your own.

How to generate random US numbers or import custom number segments?

There are two ways to obtain Telegram numbers to screen:

Method 1: Use KK-DATA Global Number Generator (Free)

1. After logging into the console, go to the “Number Generation” module.
2. Select country/region as “United States (+1)”.
3. Choose to generate randomly or specify a segment (e.g., specific city area code or carrier segment).
4. Set the quantity as needed (up to approximately 1 million per batch).
5. The generated numbers can be imported directly into a screening task.

Method 2: Import your own numbers via CSV

If you have a list of purchased or collected numbers, ensure the format is one number per line, preferably in E.164 international format (e.g., +14151234567), with no spaces, parentheses, or hyphens.

Impact of screening type selection on tgid export

After uploading numbers, you need to select a screening type. Different screening types may or may not include the tgid export field – a key detail many users overlook:

Screening Type	Returns tgid by default	Description
tg Registration (registered check)	No (requires extra selection of tgid export option)	Only checks if the number is registered on Telegram; fast and low per-record cost
tg Valid	Yes	Checks registration + validity (not banned/deactivated); returns tgid
tg Active	Yes	On top of validity, checks activity in the last 7/15/30 days; returns tgid
tg Gender	Yes	On top of validity, identifies gender via avatar; returns tgid

How to submit a US Telegram data screening task and ensure tgid is correctly exported?

There are two main paths; we recommend using the efficient single-task mode:

1. Log in to the console and click “New Screening Task”.
2. Upload the number list: Paste numbers or upload a CSV/TXT file (supports up to approximately 1 million records).
3. Select country: If the numbers already include the international code (e.g., +1), the system will detect it automatically.
4. Check screening type: We recommend selecting tg Valid (returns boolean + tgid). If your budget is limited and you only need tgid, you can select “tg Registration” but ensure you also tick the “tgid export field”.
5. Confirm fields: In the field selection, verify that “tgid” is ticked (it is usually grayed out when selected by default).
6. Click “Submit Task”: The system will display the estimated number of records to be charged (based on the quantity of numbers actually screened).
7. Wait for completion: Depending on the number quantity, the task usually completes within minutes to tens of minutes.

Note: If your balance is insufficient, the task submission will fail. Please top up first.

Detailed explanation of screening and detection fields

The exported CSV/TXT file will contain the following key columns:

• Number: E.164 international format, e.g., +14151234567
• tgid: Pure numeric integer, e.g., 1234567890
• Valid Status: true / false (from tg Valid check)
• Days Since Last Active: Numeric value, e.g., 7 means active in the last 7 days; -1 means data unavailable
• Gender: male / female / unknown

Task cost estimation and balance management

Before submitting a task, the system automatically calculates the estimated chargeable records (number of actual screened records × platform unit price). The unit price varies by screening type. Refer to the real-time price on the console for exact numbers.

• Keep sufficient balance to complete the target data volume.
• After the task completes, the fee is automatically deducted from your balance.
• If you wish to verify feasibility first, submit a small batch of numbers (e.g., 100) as a trial.

How to export the tgid field after screening is complete?

Once the task status becomes “Completed”, click to enter the task detail page to see the “Export” button.

CSV format vs TXT format: applicable scenarios

Format	Applicable Scenario	Field Content
CSV	Data analysis, Excel cleaning, database import	Contains all fields (number, tgid, valid status, activity, gender, etc.) with headers
TXT	Direct pasting, script batch calls, API integration	Only tgid (one per line) or number+tgid (comma-separated)

Suggestion: If you plan to filter users by activity or gender later, choose CSV format. If you only need a list of tgids for sending messages, TXT format is more concise.

Field details: number, tgid, activity, gender, etc.

Below is an example CSV content (header row):

number,tgid,valid_status,days_since_last_active,gender
+14151234567,1234567890,true,7,male
+14159876543,9876543210,false,-1,unknown

• Number: Can be used directly for sending messages if needed.
• tgid: Used as the target parameter in Bot API; no prefix required.
• Valid Status: If false, the number has been deactivated or banned; no tgid.
• Days Since Last Active: Smaller value indicates more recent activity. Prioritize users active within the last 7 or 30 days.
• Gender: Available only for certain screening types. male = male, female = female, unknown = cannot determine.

Common issues and data quality optimization for US Telegram data tgid export

Common Issues

Q: What is the exported tgid and what can I do with it?
A: tgid is the unique numeric identifier Telegram assigns to each user. After exporting, you can use it for precision private messaging (via Bot API), user segmentation (e.g., filtering by activity), cross-platform data association, etc.

Q: Why don’t some numbers have an tgid?
A: Possible reasons: ① The number is not registered on Telegram; ② The number was deactivated or banned at the time of screening; ③ You selected a screening type (e.g., only “tg Registration”) that did not include the tgid export option. We recommend using the “tg Valid” screening type, which returns both valid status and tgid.

Q: What is the maximum number of tgids I can export at once?
A: A single screening task supports up to approximately 1 million numbers. The exported CSV/TXT file can be downloaded directly with no row limit (file size may affect browser performance; we recommend exporting 100,000 at a time).

Q: What format is the exported tgid? Can I import it into other tools?
A: tgid is a pure numeric integer, no ”+” or other prefixes. It can be imported directly into CRM systems, Telegram Bot scripts, Excel, etc. CSV files have headers; TXT files have one tgid per line or a “number,tgid” format.

Q: How can I ensure the quality of exported US Telegram data?
A: We recommend first using “tg Registration” screening to remove unregistered numbers, then applying “tg Active” screening (e.g., active in the last 7 days) on the registered ones, and finally exporting the tgids of active users. Use the data deduplication repository to avoid duplicate screening.

Data quality optimization suggestions

1. Standardize number format: Before importing, ensure all numbers are in E.164 format (starting with +1, no spaces). Numbers that do not meet the format will be skipped by the system.
2. Deduplicate before screening: Use KK-DATA’s data deduplication repository to merge and deduplicate all tasks, avoiding repeated screening of the same number and waste of balance.
3. Test with small batches: If you have a huge number of numbers, first submit a test task of 100–500 numbers to confirm the screening type and tgid export are correct, then submit the rest in bulk.
4. Prefer tg Valid or tg Active: Compared to tg Registration, tg Valid and tg Active not only return tgid but also filter out invalid accounts, achieving two goals at once.

Best practices for exporting US Telegram data tgid

If you plan to use the exported tgids for subsequent marketing or operations, we suggest:

• Filter by activity first: In the screening task, select “tg Active (last 7 days)” and only export tgids of users active within 7 days. This group is more likely to respond to private messages or engage.
• Combine with gender filtering: If your product targets a specific gender (e.g., beauty brands targeting female users), you can also select the “tg Gender” screening type to export tgids for male or female users for precise targeting.
• Be mindful of Telegram risk control: Do not send the same message to a large number of tgids at once. Use strategies like batch delayed sending and content variation, along with authentic accounts/IPs.
• Regularly update tgid lists: Telegram users sometimes deactivate, change accounts, or get banned. We recommend re-screening existing numbers with tg Valid checks weekly or monthly to update user retention rates.
