Forward new Google Task alerts into a Telegram accountability channel

Commitments kept private are the easiest ones to quietly drop. When a new Google Task is created, Notis forwards its alert into your Telegram accountability channel, so the people helping you follow through can actually see what you took on.

Trigger

New Task Created

Triggers when a new task is created in a Google Tasks list. Uses timestamp filtering (updatedMin) to efficiently detect new tasks.

Action

Forward Message

Forward messages of any kind. service messages can't be forwarded.

Why this helps

Private task lists make it too easy to quietly abandon commitments no one else can see.

  • Make commitments visible so follow-through has witnesses
  • Loop an accountability group in without extra effort
  • Turn a private to-do into a small public promise

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Tasks and Telegram to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Open your portal link and create a New Automation.
  • 3Describe it: when a new Google Task is created, send an alert and forward it into my Telegram accountability channel.
  • 4Select the New Task Created trigger and pick the accountability channel as the target.
  • 5Test by adding a task and confirming it lands in the channel.

Questions about this workflow

Can I choose which tasks get forwarded?

Yes. Scope it in the prompt, for example only tasks from a commitments list, and Notis follows that.

Who sees the forwarded alert?

Whoever is in the Telegram channel you point it at, so pick your accountability group deliberately.
