# Create Channel

{% hint style="warning" %}
Before create Channel, make sure you have a agent. You can see this section for [Create Agent](/deka-claw/detail-deka-claw/agent/create-agent.md).
{% endhint %}

The **Create Channel** feature is used to set up a new connection between Deka Claw and a communication platform (such as Telegram), allowing bots or agents to interact with users through that channel.

To create a Channel, click the **+ Create Channel** button

These sections include **Basic Information** to enter the channel’s basic information, **Channel Type** to select the Channel type to be used, and **Agent** to specify the agent that will be connected to the Channel.
