+=== Example of sending Telegram messages upon new alerts ===
+Below is the example of how to send Telegram messages when the alert count has increased:
+<code lua>
+--[[
+    Checks if number of alerts has increased and then sends message via
+    Telegram
+--]]
+TELEGRAM_BOT_ID = "229345xxxxx"                -- your telegram chat bot id
+active_alerts = 0                              -- global counter for current alerts
+function main (userId)
+  local alerts = GetCurrentAlerts()
+  if (#alerts > active_alerts) then            -- number has increased, # - means count table elements
+      local a_names = {}                       DEBUG("Alert count has increased!")
+      for a_num, a in ipairs(alerts) do
+          INFO("Processing alert #" .. a_num)
+          table.insert(a_names, a.title)
+      end
+      SendTelegramMessage(TELEGRAM_BOT_ID,
+                          "Current alerts are: " .. table.concat(a_names, ', '))
+  end
+  active_alerts = #alerts
