Bring text-based decisions to a Telegram poll
When a recurring review finds a decision in recent texts, Notis can frame a Telegram poll to collect a quick team response.
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
A decision mentioned in a text thread can stall when no one turns it into a clear question for the team.
- Surface a decision that appears in recent messages.
- Present a concise question for a Telegram group.
- Collect responses with a native Telegram poll.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Android Texter and Telegram once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, describe how to identify a pending decision in recent texts and form a neutral poll question with answer options.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports go.
- 5Test with one review using messages that contain a clear decision and check the poll wording.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create a poll for every message?
Describe the decision criteria in the instruction and ask Notis to skip reviews without a clear pending decision.
Can Notis invent poll options when the message is vague?
It can draft options from the information returned, but missing choices or context should be supplied or treated as a reason to skip the poll.
