Keep Knack accurate with Telegram corrections

Send a correction in Telegram and let Notis update the related Knack record.

Trigger

New Message Received

Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.

Action

Update object record

Tool to update an existing record in a specific Knack object. Use when you need to modify field values in an existing record. Only fields provided in the request will be updated; all other fields remain unchanged.

Why this helps

Correcting a detail in chat does not automatically fix the copy stored in your database.

  • Carry important corrections into your database.
  • Avoid hunting down stale information later.
  • Reduce repeated manual edits across tools.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Knack to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis what an update should do.
  • 3Describe in one prompt how correction messages identify the Knack record and what should change.
  • 4Choose New Message Received and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one correction to a record you can verify.
