Collect Algolia search feedback with a Telegram poll
Ask your team one focused question about search quality in a native Telegram poll, then review the responses together.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Send Poll
Send a native poll to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Search quality feedback often arrives informally, making it hard to notice recurring problems or decide what to investigate next.
- Collect focused feedback without asking everyone to write a long report.
- Keep the check-in inside a team chat.
- Use poll responses as a prompt for investigation, not as an unsupported performance measurement.
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 a concise poll question grounded in the Algolia search context and the available answer choices.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real poll and confirm its wording is clear to your team.
Questions about this workflow
Does the poll measure Algolia search performance?
No. It collects respondents' feedback. Use Algolia's available performance data separately when you need measured search results or metrics.
What should the poll ask?
Choose one concrete search experience question that your team can answer quickly. If the question depends on a particular query or index, provide that context in the automation instruction.
Can the poll results be treated as representative?
They reflect responses from poll participants, not necessarily every user. The workflow should avoid presenting them as a complete or statistically representative measure.
