Welcome New Team Members from Telegram to Slack
When a new team member joins your Telegram group, Notis posts a welcome message in Slack with onboarding steps and key resources.
Trigger
New Chat Member
Action
Post message to channel
Why this helps
New team members join and get lost. There's no centralized way to surface onboarding info, and manually welcoming each person is exhausting.
- New members see onboarding steps without asking
- Reduces founder workload during hiring
- Standardized welcome message improves consistency
- Central record of who joined and when
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram (with Privacy Mode disabled so the bot sees joins) and Slack to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with trigger 'New Chat Member' in your Telegram group.
- 3Write the prompt: 'Post a welcome message to the onboarding Slack channel that includes [your team docs, tools list, intro schedule]'.
- 4Test by adding yourself to a Telegram test group and verify the Slack message appears.
Questions about this workflow
What if I want different onboarding messages for different roles?
Create multiple automations with different prompts. Notis can route based on job title or team if you include that info in the Telegram group name or a note.
Can I include documents or files in the Slack welcome message?
Yes. Your prompt can specify links to documents, files, or even tell Notis to attach specific resources.
How does the bot know when someone joins?
The Telegram bot must have Privacy Mode disabled in BotFather. Then it sees all join events automatically.
