Never miss a lead: instant Telegram alerts for new Google Sheets entries
Stop checking your sheets manually for new leads. When someone fills out your intake form and a new row appears, Notis sends your team a Telegram message with the essentials. No more dropped leads, no more context switching between tabs.
Trigger
New Rows in Google Sheet
Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.
Action
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Manually checking spreadsheets multiple times a day to see if new leads arrived, then messaging team members individually, creating delays and duplicate work.
- Get instant Telegram alerts the moment new leads arrive, no manual checking
- Reduce time spent switching between email, sheets, and chat
- Team sees the same update simultaneously, eliminating duplicate messages
- Catch leads immediately instead of reviewing at end of day
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Telegram to Notis in the portal (do this once for all automations)
- 2Ask Notis 'Create an automation that notifies my team in Telegram when new leads appear in my tracker sheet' or open Automations and click Create
- 3Write one plain-language instruction: 'Send a Telegram message to my team with the new lead details whenever a row is added'
- 4Select 'New Rows in Google Sheet' as your trigger, pick your team's Telegram channel for run reports, and test by adding a sample lead
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which columns to include in the message?
You describe it in your plain-language instruction. You can say 'include the name, email, and priority' and Notis will format those fields into the alert. No field mapping screens required.
Can I filter which new rows trigger the alert?
Yes. In your instruction, specify the filter: 'only notify when a new lead arrives with priority set to High' or 'when the source is website signup'. Notis interprets this and applies it automatically.
Will the alert interrupt work if I'm focused on a task?
Telegram notifications can be silenced per channel. Set your team channel to muted if you want digests instead of live alerts, then ask Notis to send a summary at the end of the day.
