Why this helps
Status messages in Telegram go stale. Founders either spam new updates or leave outdated info in the chat.
- Keep status messages current without creating duplicates
- Reduce message spam in team channels
- Enable real-time status visibility
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram to Notis and send an initial status message to Telegram.
- 2Tell Notis: 'Create a webhook that edits my Telegram status message when my API detects changes.'
- 3Copy the webhook URL into your API.
- 4Configure your API to POST data with the message ID and updated content.
- 5Test by triggering an API change and confirming the Telegram message updates.
Questions about this workflow
How do I specify which message to edit?
Send the message first, then include its ID in your webhook payload. Notis edits that specific message.
Can I update multiple messages at once?
Yes. Send multiple message IDs in the webhook and Notis updates all of them.
Does editing the message preserve formatting and media?
Yes. Notis updates the text while keeping the message's original formatting, buttons, and media intact.
