Why this helps
Environmental context is easy to miss when updates arrive in one channel and planning happens elsewhere.
- Tie a city air check to a new channel update.
- Add context for outdoor plans or events.
- Reduce a separate manual lookup after posts arrive.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Ambee in the portal once, and make the bot an administrator in the channel.
- 2Create the automation in Automations or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Give one instruction to identify a city in each new channel post, retrieve its current Ambee air quality, and include a concise result in the run report.
- 4Select New Channel Post as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by publishing one real channel post that names a city.
