Update a nearby search when a Telegram request changes
If someone clarifies what they need or where they need it, search using the revised request.
Trigger
Message Edited
Triggered when a message in a chat your bot can see is edited by its sender.
Action
Nearby search
Searches for places (e.g., restaurants, parks) within a specified circular area, with options to filter by place types and customize the returned fields and number of results.
Why this helps
A clarification in chat can get lost, causing people to repeat a search or act on the wrong options.
- Use the latest place type and area details.
- Keep corrections connected to the original request.
- Reduce repeated searches after a clarification.

- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Give one plain-language instruction to rerun a nearby search from the revised Telegram message.
- 4Choose the Telegram message-edited trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by editing a request with a changed location or category.
