In telegram i want bullet points , numbering and indentations but its not working – Telegram API

I need to format my text in telegram.
I try to use markdown language for the following text:

* Item
* Item

It prints the text as it is.
It is supposed to print bullets instead.

I am following this link: https://wordpress.com/support/markdown-quick-reference/

    Telegram’s versions of MarkDown: Markdown & Markdown v2 don’t support any sort of lists.

    The only way to achieve this is using the pre-formatted code block with a ‘custom’ list which will allow any sort of indentation:

    ```
1) Item - 1
2) Item - 2
    A) Sub-Item - 1
```

    This will not help you with indentations but will make nicely looking bullet points. Just copy and paste the bullet point UTF-8 character at the beginning of each line.

    • first point
    • second point
    • etc
