- Reduce the risk of copying an outdated chat message.
- Keep the correction step close to its source.

- 2Create an automation and describe how edited reports should be submitted through your configured CommCare form.
- 3Pick Telegram Message Edited as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test by editing one suitable message and confirming the corrected details in CommCare.
Questions about this workflow
Can this replace a previously submitted form?
The action submits a form. It does not delete or revise an earlier submission unless the CommCare form and process support that outcome.
Which edits can the bot see?
The bot must be able to see the chat containing the edited message.
