Turn Telegram project kickoffs into FreeAgent projects
When a new client engagement is agreed in chat, Notis can set up its FreeAgent project so tracking can start.
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
Create Project
Tool to create a project in FreeAgent. Use when you need to set up a new project for tracking time, expenses, and billing against a specific client or internal initiative.
Why this helps
New engagements can begin in conversation while the project setup waits for someone to remember it.
- Start project tracking while the kickoff is fresh.
- Keep new engagements connected to the client.
- Reduce the setup steps between agreement and delivery.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and FreeAgent to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set one up conversationally.
- 3Give one instruction to create a FreeAgent project from Telegram messages that clearly confirm a new engagement, and flag unclear client or project details.
- 4Choose the Telegram message trigger and the channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real kickoff and verify the project in FreeAgent.
