Get an Algolia search brief in Telegram
Ask for the records you need and receive a short, readable Algolia results brief in Telegram.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Search results often need a second pass before they are useful, and switching tools to share them makes follow-up easy to lose.
- Review relevant records without opening the Algolia dashboard.
- Share results in the chat where decisions and follow-up happen.
- Keep the brief focused on the request instead of forwarding a raw result dump.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Algolia and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, describe the Algolia search to run and how to summarize the useful results in Telegram.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real search request and review the Telegram message.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this workflow?
An HTTP request to its Notis webhook starts the automation. Algolia does not provide a trigger event in this workflow setup.
Can the message include every result?
Ask for a concise selection or summary. The instruction should specify what is useful, and any criteria not available from the Algolia response must be supplied in the request.
Where does the summary go?
The automation sends a text message using the Telegram chat available to your connected bot.
