Make handle lookup a deliberate choice

A tap on the lookup button starts the username query, keeping the action intentional and easy to follow.

Trigger

Callback Query Received

Triggered when a user taps an inline keyboard button attached to one of your bot's messages.

Action

Get Gender from Username

Tool to determine gender from a username or nickname. Use when you have an alias or handle and want to infer gender from that identifier.

Why this helps

An unclear, implicit lookup can create extra back-and-forth about whether a check was wanted.

  • Use a deliberate tap to signal the requested action.
  • Make the start of the lookup easy to recognize.
  • Keep the result connected to the button interaction.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and GenderAPI.io to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a plain-language instruction to query the username associated with a tapped lookup button.
  • 3Select Callback Query Received and choose a channel for reports.
  • 4Test by tapping the button with one suitable handle.

Questions about this workflow

What does the tap confirm?

It signals that the user wants the configured lookup for the associated handle; it does not confirm the estimate's accuracy.

What if the callback has no handle context?

Skip the query unless the associated username is clear.
