Why this helps
Duplicate setup entries create clutter and can make event lists harder to trust.
- Act on an explicit cleanup decision without a separate manual reminder.
- Use the supplied id to target the intended category.
- Keep the change visible through run reports.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Expofp to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations or ask Notis in conversation.
- 3Give one instruction to remove only a clearly identified duplicate category after an explicit cleanup request.
- 4Choose Telegram New Message Received and select the run-report channel.
- 5Test with a safe, known duplicate category id.
Questions about this workflow
Does it find duplicates automatically?
No. The action removes a specified category. The team must identify the duplicate and its id.
What if the message names a category but no id?
Configure Notis to request the id rather than guessing which category to remove.
