Why this helps
A question posted to a team channel can sit unanswered while everyone assumes someone else will check compatibility.
- Give format questions a clear owner through automation.
- Reduce repeated manual research in team conversations.
- Keep a compatibility reference close to the original discussion.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and CloudConvert to Notis once in the portal, and ensure the bot is an administrator in the channel.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to configure it in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to retrieve supported formats when a channel post asks a clear CloudConvert compatibility question and share a concise response in the chosen run-report channel.
- 4Choose New Channel Post as the trigger and select a channel for reports.
- 5Test by publishing a post with a specific format support question.
Questions about this workflow
Does the bot need channel access?
Yes. The Telegram bot must be an administrator in the channel to receive channel posts.
Will this handle every channel post?
The automation starts for new posts. The instruction should tell Notis to respond only when the post contains a format support question.
