When a familiar name appears in chat, checking the CRM can interrupt the work you were already doing.
- Find existing contacts without leaving the conversation flow.
- Reduce accidental duplicate person records.
- Make it easier to reconnect a message with CRM context.

- 1Connect Telegram and Centralstationcrm to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to search Centralstationcrm people when a Telegram message identifies a person to look up.
- 3Write a plain-language instruction describing which identifiers to use and how Notis should report possible matches.
- 4Choose New Message Received as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real name or email and confirm the search result is relevant.
