Check an unfamiliar number before you call back
Send the number to your Telegram bot. Notis retrieves Callerapi details so you can decide whether a callback deserves your attention.
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 Phone Number Information
Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific phone number, including reputation, business and carrier details, and ftc complaints. use when the number is in e.164 format and set hlr=true to include hlr data (adds 1-3 seconds to response).
Why this helps
An unfamiliar missed call can interrupt focused work and leave you unsure whether to respond.
- Review reputation and carrier details without opening another lookup tool.
- Use FTC complaint information as one signal when deciding what to do next.
- Keep the check attached to the Telegram request that prompted it.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Callerapi to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations -> New Automation, or ask Notis in plain language to check numbers sent to your Telegram bot.
- 3Tell Notis to use Callerapi to retrieve information for E.164 numbers, then summarize reputation, business, carrier, and FTC complaint details.
- 4Select Telegram New Message Received as the trigger, choose a channel for run reports, and test with one real E.164 number.
Questions about this workflow
What number format should I send?
Send the number in E.164 format, including the country code, so Callerapi can look it up.
Does a negative reputation prove a call is fraudulent?
No. Use reputation and complaint details as context for your judgment, not as a definitive fraud finding.
