Why this helps
Research questions in chat can be missed when nobody has time to monitor messages continuously.
- Collect defined requests from Telegram updates
- Research questions without manual context switching
- Return answers where the question was asked
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Autom and Telegram once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation and define what counts as a research request plus the Autom research instruction.
- 3Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 4Ask Notis to inspect available Telegram updates, research matching requests, and reply only when the source chat and request are clear.
- 5Test with one real request and verify the response goes to the right chat.
Questions about this workflow
Will this retrieve every historical Telegram message?
The action receives incoming updates using long polling. It should not be treated as an unrestricted full-history search.
How can it identify requests?
Define the request pattern in the prompt; there are no Autom trigger events or field-mapping filters here.
Can it reply to a user?
Yes, when the update contains enough information to identify the relevant chat and the bot can message it.
