Telegram creation without HTTPS

I am trying to make a bot to connect to my web host and access the database and interact with PHP. But I searched a lot and found out that I need to have an SSL certificate. Is there any way to configure the bot without having SSl?

GetUpdatesThe method is intended for debugging. You need to use Telegram Webhook, and yes, you must have an SSL certificate. But if you do not want to buy a paid certificate, you can use Cloud Flare for free . In the Cloud Flare service 'Flexible SSL'you do not need to install any certificate on the server side and simply (with changing name servers) make your SSL site that accepts a telegram.
