Why this helps
When a campaign needs a chat setting changed, the team may not know who has the access to do it.
- Identify the available chat administrators from Telegram's response.
- Reduce time spent asking who can manage the chat.
- Keep the lookup tied to a specific campaign request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveTrail and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for campaign chat coordination.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: retrieve administrators for the supplied Telegram chat and share the returned list with the supplied campaign context.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real chat where the bot can retrieve administrators.
