Check Beeminder timezone context in Telegram

Before planning around a deadline, ask Notis to retrieve the Beeminder account context that can help you orient yourself.

Trigger

New Message Received

Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.

Action

Get Beeminder User Information

Tool to retrieve information about a specified beeminder user. use when you need to fetch details like timezone, goals, urgency, or deleted goals after authenticating successfully.

Why this helps

Unclear timezone context can make a deadline feel harder to interpret when you are already juggling several priorities.

  • Bring timezone context into your planning conversation.
  • Avoid switching screens for a basic account detail.
  • Make deadline-related discussions easier to ground.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Beeminder to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to make one.
  • 3Write a plain-language instruction to retrieve Beeminder user information, including timezone context where available, when you ask in Telegram.
  • 4Select the Telegram new message trigger and a channel for reports.
  • 5Test with a real timezone-context request.

Questions about this workflow

Is the timezone guaranteed to be included?

The action can fetch information such as timezone, but the exact returned details depend on the available Beeminder user information.

Does this change deadline settings?

No. It retrieves account information and does not change goal settings.
