Now the telegram bot can only send messages to users or groups, but I want to post the message to the channel.

Thanks for the report, @AuroraDysis!

I've added support for Telegram channels, and updated https://healthchecks.io – feel free to try it out!

Note that unlike groups, in channels the bot receives all messages sent to the group (looks like that's how bots work in channels – see FAQ). The bot looks for messages that contain "/start" and ignores all other messages.
