Why this helps
PTO coordination often stalls while someone searches for dates and context in another system.
- Retrieve relevant time-off context when requested.
- Keep the summary short and ready to act on.
- Reduce switching between HR records and team chat.

- 1Connect BambooHR and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the PTO details to retrieve and how to summarize them.
- 3Pick a webhook trigger for coordinator requests.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real, authorized PTO request and review the Telegram note.
Questions about this workflow
Does this approve or change a PTO request?
No. This workflow summarizes available context and sends a Telegram message. It does not approve or update PTO.
What if the request does not identify the right employee or dates?
Include enough identifying context in the webhook request or the instruction. Notis can only summarize the matching information it can retrieve.
