Use Ceramic trend searches to start a Telegram poll
Bring a useful question to your team chat after a scheduled web search, so discussion starts with current public context.
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
Teams often have information to discuss but no clear prompt to get a focused conversation started.
- Pair a topic search with an easy team response.
- Start discussion in the Telegram group where people already collaborate.
- Use public web findings to frame a timely question.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ceramic and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the discussion pulse.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: search the selected topic with Ceramic and send a Telegram poll that asks the team a concise question grounded in the findings.
- 4Choose the recurring schedule trigger and cadence.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real topic and review the poll.
Questions about this workflow
Does Ceramic create the poll choices?
Ceramic provides public web content. Notis can use those findings to draft a question and poll choices for Telegram.
Can the poll be a team decision?
Yes, if the prompt frames a decision and the answer choices are clear. The poll itself does not make the decision for your team.
How often can it run?
Choose a recurring schedule that gives your team enough time to respond and discuss each poll.
