Check the bot before a Telegram handoff

Confirm the connected Telegram bot's basic identity before relying on it for an HR coordination message or handoff.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get Bot Info

Get basic information about the bot using the bot api getme method.

Why this helps

A workflow can be harder to troubleshoot when nobody is sure which connected bot is meant to post to the team.

  • Retrieve basic information about the connected bot.
  • Make a bot identity check part of an on-demand preflight.
  • Reduce uncertainty about which bot will be used for a later handoff.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Breathe HR and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
  • 3Describe when to retrieve the bot's basic information and where to report it.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real request and confirm the returned bot information is recognizable.
