Notis

Help new members find the right catalog starting point

For groups that coordinate recurring equipment needs, Notis can respond to a new member event with category context based on the group's established focus.

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 Categories

Tool to retrieve best buy product categories. use when you need to list or filter categories in the catalog.

Why this helps

New members can miss the context behind a shared equipment plan and repeat earlier research.

  • Share a consistent catalog starting point with new members.
  • Reuse the group's established equipment context.
  • Reduce repeated orientation and category searches.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Best Buy to Notis once and ensure the bot belongs to the group.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one prompt directing Notis to retrieve Best Buy categories relevant to the group's established equipment focus when a member joins.
  • 4Choose Telegram New Chat Member as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by adding a member to a test group with a clear equipment focus.

Questions about this workflow

Will this work for any Telegram group?

The bot must belong to the group, and the prompt needs a clear equipment focus to guide the category lookup.

Does it send a welcome message to the new member?

The configured Best Buy action retrieves categories. It does not create a separate Telegram welcome action.
