Triage Telegram PDFs with an automatic metadata check
Share a PDF in Telegram and have Notis retrieve its key properties through Encodian.
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 PDF Metadata
Tool to extract PDF metadata and properties. Use when you need to retrieve details like page count, author, file size, and custom attributes.
Why this helps
Opening every incoming PDF just to find its length or basic details interrupts focused work.
- See page count and file properties sooner.
- Decide which documents need attention without opening each one.
- Keep PDF intake lightweight during a busy day.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Encodian to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language what result you want.
- 3Use one instruction: when a Telegram message includes a PDF, retrieve its metadata with Encodian and summarize the useful properties.
- 4Select Telegram New Message Received as the trigger and choose where run reports should appear.
- 5Test by sending one real PDF to the bot.
