As of Telegram Desktop Version 3.1.1, You can format the your message like:

Create link:

Ctrl + K = this pops Create link field and auto fills selected text on Text

Other useful hotkeys:

Ctrl + B = Bold
Ctrl + I = Italic
Ctrl + U = Underline
Ctrl + Shift + S = Strikethrough
Ctrl + Shift + M = Monospace
Ctrl + Shift + N = Plain Text
Ctrl + Shift + X = Strikethrough

How about the mobile version, please? Isn't there any way to do this without a bot on the mobile version of Telegram? And if not, what's the best bot for that please? – Franky Jan 15 '19 at 08:11

On Telegram Desktop for macOS, the shortcuts differ. You can right-click a highlighted text, then hover over Transformations to see the available options:

You can make a hyperlink in Telegram by writing an URL and send the message. Using Telegram Bot APIs you can send a clickable URL in two ways:

Markdown:

[This is an example](https://example.com)

HTML:

<a href="https://example.com">This is an example</a>

In both cases you will have:

This is an example

EDIT: In new version of Telegram clients you can do that, see above answers.

In question he wrote "without bots", So i think it's impossible without bots – N1gthm4r3 May 14 '18 at 07:13
@N1gthm4r3 yes, it's impossible. But you can use the inline bot `@bold` with the Markdown syntax. – MarcoBuster May 15 '18 at 19:47

But in the header you still see **via @bold**, it's not clean – N1gthm4r3 May 16 '18 at 08:48
OK, how to add that bot to our groups? I looked at the page, but it's only talking about features. I didn't find a way to add that Telegram bot to groups to be able to use its features in there. :( – Franky Jan 15 '19 at 08:23
This doesn't actually work if the URL has special chars in it such as _ in odd numbers. telegram.error.BadRequest: Can't parse entities: can't find end of italic entity at byte offset 715 calling bot.sendMessage(chat_id=id, text=msg, parse_mode='MarkdownV2') – NoobTom May 25 '21 at 22:32

My phone is xiaomi Redmi note 8 with MIUI 11.0.9 . There is no option for create hyperlink : So I use Telegram desktop or Telegram X for create hyperlink because Telegram X supports markdown. Type url and send message (in Telegram X) or there is an alternate way which is the easiest!

Update

This way works for all phones!

Select the text using Word Editor and click in the three dots on the top right corner of the chat. It is usually used for accessing settings but if you select a text and click there, you can see Telegram's own Formatter!

As of now (2020-10-08), this solution (and Markdown) also works on plain Telegram for Android (not only Telegram X). Thanks, it's very useful for MIUI users! – trolley813 Oct 08 '20 at 20:28
Yeah. New Updates are great! – mo1ein Oct 08 '20 at 21:38

If you're using iOS and (still, after all these years) don't have the button to create a link you can use this shortcut to create a link with custom text.

URL is taken via "share" action, clipboard if the shortcut wasn't called via "share" menu or requested from user.

The result is put in the clipboard, you just have to paste it into telegram.
