  formData.append("document", fileBuffer, {
    filename: "test.txt",
  });
  formData.append("caption", "Document title or description here");
  const telegram_sendmessage = await fetch(
    `https://api.telegram.org/${BOT_TOKEN}/sendDocument`,
    {
      method: "POST",
      headers: {
        accept: "application/json",

Try this multipart/form-data instead of application/json or headers: formData.getHeaders()
