Why this helps
A group discussion can stall when no one has an easy first question to answer.
- Give a Bible study group an easy way to start participating.
- Ground the question in a passage looked up through Api bible.
- Use a native Telegram poll for responses.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Api bible and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to look up the supplied passage and create a poll using your discussion question and answer choices.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real passage and confirm the poll choices make sense.
