Give a new group member goal context

A new member can be a useful moment to review the goals your team is tracking. Notis fetches the active list for the run report.

Trigger

New Chat Member

Triggered when a new member joins a group or supergroup the bot belongs to, including when the bot itself is added.

Action

Get all goals

Tool to retrieve all goals for a specified user. use when listing a user's active goals.

Why this helps

Onboarding someone into a busy group can create repeated explanations and make it easy to lose track of shared priorities.

  • Use a join event as a cue to review current goals.
  • Keep team orientation grounded in the goals you actually track.
  • Reduce the need to search for a current goal list while onboarding.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Beeminder to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
  • 3In one plain-language prompt, ask Notis to retrieve active Beeminder goals when a member joins the chosen group and include a concise overview in the run report.
  • 4Pick the Telegram new chat member trigger and choose a run-report channel.
  • 5Test with a real member-join event in the group.

Questions about this workflow

Does the bot need to be in the group?

Yes. The Telegram bot must belong to the group or supergroup to receive the new chat member event.

Does this automatically message the new member?

The listed action retrieves goals. Choose your report channel and prompt behavior carefully; this action alone does not send a Beeminder goal list to the member.
