Gather a quick member pulse with a Telegram poll

When member feedback gets postponed, a simple poll can make it easier to hear what people need next.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Send Poll

Send a native poll to a telegram chat using the bot api.

Why this helps

Gathering community input often slips behind day-to-day founder work, leaving member needs unclear.

  • Put a small feedback prompt on the calendar
  • Make it easy for members to respond in Telegram
  • Use a question and options you have supplied

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Brilliant Directories and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, provide the poll question and answer options, and ask Notis to post them to the intended Telegram chat.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example in the intended chat.

Questions about this workflow

Does this automation know what members need?

No. Provide the question and answer choices you want to ask. Notis should not invent a member preference or claim the poll represents everyone.

Does Brilliant Directories trigger the poll?

No Brilliant Directories trigger events are available for this workflow. A Notis recurring schedule starts it.
