Why this helps
Visit locations shared in chat can disappear under newer messages before anyone records them.
- Keep visit locations easy to revisit.
- Reduce after-the-fact data entry.
- Make location-based follow-up easier to coordinate.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Felt to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3In one plain-language instruction, ask Notis to add clearly identified field visit locations from new Telegram messages to a designated Felt map.
- 4Choose New Message Received and select a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real message describing a visit location.
Questions about this workflow
Can it capture a place from a photo alone?
The message should contain location details that Notis can identify; a clear place name or address is useful.
Can it ignore casual location mentions?
Yes. The instruction can ask Notis to add only locations described as field visits or inspections.
