You can send e.g. an created own command via Telegram bot to your router.
(There a two example commands in the package BlackVS provided which helps to understand how to do)
E.g. I want to know what devices are online - so I send the key command /onlineDevices via Telegram, the Mikrotik router checks the Telegram bot regularly (via scheduler), receives the command, interpretes it and sends according feedback (current online devices) back to the bot and therfore to my smartphone.
