Triage video links shared in Telegram
Forward a video page when it arrives and get its available title and description in a quick text brief.
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 Video Data
Tool to extract information from videos, including titles, descriptions, and embedded html. use when you need structured video metadata from any web page.
Why this helps
Videos queue up in chat because deciding whether to watch each one takes a separate block of attention.
- Capture the video title and description for a quicker first pass.
- Keep useful context with the link for when you have time to watch.
- Avoid opening every video just to learn what it covers.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Diffbot to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction asking Notis to extract available video metadata with Diffbot from video page URLs sent in Telegram and return a short brief.
- 4Choose Telegram New Message Received as the trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 5Test with one publicly accessible page containing a video.
