Weekly Sprint Kickoff Reminders on Telegram
Sprint starts Monday. Rather than a meeting to figure out priorities, everyone gets a Telegram message Friday afternoon with the week's focus. Synchronous meetings are optional.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Sprint kickoff meetings burn time and still don't ensure everyone understands priorities. People drift through the week without clear focus or alignment.
- Async sprint alignment
- Clearer week priorities
- Reduced meeting overhead
- Better focus
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Telegram to Notis via the portal.
- 2Create an automation: 'Every Monday at 8 AM, send a summary of this week's sprint goals and key issues to the #engineering channel.'
- 3Select the 'Weekly Schedule' trigger and your team Telegram channel.
- 4Verify by checking the first message arrives with sprint details.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know what the sprint goals are?
It pulls active issues and sprints from Jira. You can customize the message to highlight specific goals in your automation prompt.
Can I send different summaries for different teams?
Yes. Create separate automations for different channels or sprint boards.
What if we don't use sprints?
Notis adapts to your workflow. Describe it in your prompt: 'Show me this week's high-priority issues instead of sprint data.'
