Why this helps
A person worth remembering may be mentioned in a channel post and then lost among later updates.
- Surfaces relevant contact context close to the update.
- Makes a channel post easier to follow up on later.
- Limits lookups to posts that identify a person clearly.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Folk to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to find a Folk contact when a channel post clearly identifies a person.
- 3Describe in one plain-language instruction when to look up a person and how to return a concise result.
- 4Select Telegram New Channel Post as the trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a channel post about a person who is already in Folk.
Questions about this workflow
Will it create a contact for each name in a post?
No. This workflow lists existing Folk people for lookup and does not create contacts.
What if several people are mentioned?
The instruction can ask Notis to return only the relevant people and keep the response concise.
