Request alternate GIF variations with a tap

When a team member taps a Telegram button, Notis can fetch variations for a known emoji GIF to make choosing an option simpler.

Trigger

Callback Query Received

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

Action

Emoji Variations

Tool to fetch variations for a specific emoji. Use when you have an emoji's GIF ID and want its variations.

Why this helps

Repeatedly asking for alternatives in chat can create extra messages and delay a simple decision.

  • Use a single button tap to request alternate visuals.
  • Reduce back-and-forth when the team wants options.
  • Keep the variation request tied to the original chat.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Giphy to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create a Telegram bot message with an inline button tied to a known emoji GIF, then create an automation asking Notis to fetch its variations when tapped.
  • 3Choose Telegram Callback Query Received as the trigger and select a run-report channel.
  • 4Test by tapping the button attached to the bot message.
