Why this helps
Switching between chat, calendar, and maps to reconstruct where you are going adds friction before every visit.
- Turn an address shared in chat into directions.
- Keep visit planning close to the conversation that prompted it.
- Avoid retyping destinations in a maps app.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Google Maps to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis for it in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to get directions to a destination mentioned in Telegram from your usual starting point.
- 4Choose the Telegram new-message trigger and where run reports should arrive.
- 5Test with a real destination address.

Can I ask for a specific travel mode?
