Send a Telegram word request to a Notis webhook
A Telegram-connected service can pass a clearly identified word to Notis for a Dictionary api lookup.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Word Definition V2
Tool to retrieve definitions, phonetics, origin, and meanings of a given word using freedictionaryapi v2. use when you need comprehensive lexical data for a specific word.
Why this helps
A custom bot workflow can leave a word request waiting if it has no simple path to retrieve a definition.
- Route a word request from a custom Telegram setup.
- Use Notis to retrieve lexical information for a specific term.
- Keep the automation prompt readable in plain language.

- 1Connect Telegram and Dictionary api to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to create a webhook-triggered automation that looks up the word included in a Telegram-connected request.
- 3Choose an incoming webhook as the trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 4Send a test request containing one word and confirm the returned lookup.
