Why this helps
Repeated process questions interrupt focused work when the answer exists in a document but is hard to locate.
- Turns process questions into a document lookup.
- Reduces time spent manually searching document titles.
- Helps surface existing guidance before creating another version.
Setup

- 1Connect Telegram and Google Docs to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation conversationally or in the portal's Automations section.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to recognize process-location questions, search Google Docs using their topic, and report the best matching document title and link in the configured run channel.
- 4Pick Telegram New Message Received as the trigger and select where run reports should appear.
- 5Test with a real question about a documented process and confirm the result is relevant.
