Answer scripture questions where your group chats
Send a question through a webhook and bring back a clear, passage-supported response 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
A question raised in chat can disappear while someone searches for a passage and prepares a response.
- Respond to a question without manually switching to a separate Bible lookup.
- Include supporting passages in the chat answer.
- Keep the question and response together for later reference.
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 answer the supplied scripture question using Api bible and send a concise response with relevant passages to Telegram.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real question and review the response.
