Turn an alt text chat thread into a clear handoff

Bring the relevant Telegram discussion into a short summary so the next person can pick up the image review with context.

Trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Chat History

Get chat history messages. note: this uses the getupdates method with specific parameters to retrieve historical messages.

Why this helps

A reviewer joining late may need to scan a long chat thread to understand what has already been decided.

  • Reduce time spent rereading review discussions.
  • Give a new reviewer a concise context handoff.
  • Keep summaries tied to the supplied image description and chat.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AltTextLab and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a Notis automation for review thread summaries.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve available chat history and summarize the parts relevant to the supplied AltTextLab description and review context.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with the intended chat and check the retrieved history limits before relying on the summary.

Questions about this workflow

Will Telegram return every historical message?

The action retrieves chat history using getUpdates with specific parameters. The returned range may be limited, so check it with a real chat.

Can the summary include decisions that were never stated?

No. It should summarize the returned messages and identify any missing context rather than infer decisions.
