  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to retrieve BART station details after station-specific channel posts.
  • 3Write a single plain-language instruction to identify the station, resolve its abbreviation if needed, retrieve details, and report them.
  • 4Select Telegram New Channel Post and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real station update posted to the connected channel.

Questions about this workflow

Ask Notis to look up each clearly identified station or ask which one matters if the post is ambiguous.
