Bring ClickHouse release checks into a Telegram poll

Pair a data-backed readiness check with a simple team response in the chat where release decisions happen.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Send Poll

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

Why this helps

Teams can review metrics in one place and discuss readiness somewhere else, leaving the decision scattered.

  • Put a defined data check beside a team decision.
  • Collect responses through a native Telegram poll.
  • Keep release readiness visible in the group chat.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ClickHouse and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, state the ClickHouse release criteria and ask for a Telegram poll with clear response options.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the poll reflects the intended decision.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow deploy or approve a release?

No. It checks the criteria you describe and posts a poll. The team makes the decision in Telegram.

Who starts the check?

An HTTP request starts the webhook-triggered automation. Arrange for your release process or another caller to send it.

Can Notis invent release criteria?

No. Specify the relevant ClickHouse checks and what each poll option means.
