Trigger

Action

Search Media Items

Searches for media items in a user's google photos library.

Why this helps

A design or website task stalls while someone hunts for a visual reference they know they saved.

  • Shortens the path from a reference request to candidate images.
  • Lets the request include practical context such as a page or campaign.
  • Reduces the cost of switching into manual library browsing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Google Photos to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it through Telegram.
  • 3Use a plain-language instruction to search Google Photos for reference images described in Telegram messages.
  • 4Choose New Message Received and select where to receive run reports.
  • 5Test with a scene or subject present in the library and inspect the results.

Questions about this workflow

Will this choose the final image for a page?

No. It searches for matching media items so you can review and choose the appropriate reference.

What makes a useful request?

Describe the subject, setting, or visual quality you remember, plus the page or use case if that helps narrow the search.
