Why this helps
New community members can join faster than a founder can remember every onboarding step and question.
- Keep a community intake form available as part of the join process.
- Use the group's onboarding context to define the form.
- Reduce the chance that a useful intake step is forgotten.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Byteforms to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create one conversationally.
- 3Use one prompt to create a Byteforms community intake form for the configured new-member scenario, using the onboarding requirements you describe.
- 4Set New Chat Member as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a controlled new-member example and review the result.
Questions about this workflow
Does every new member need a separate form?
The prompt should reflect your intended onboarding process and avoid creating duplicate forms unless that is specifically useful.
Can this send the form to the new member?
The selected Byteforms action creates a form. Sending it to the member would require a separate supported action.
