Turn Slack conversations into searchable documents
Key discussions from Slack channels are exported as documents and saved in Telegram. Your team knowledge base stays organized.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Send Document
Send general files (documents) to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Important decisions and technical discussions happen in Slack threads, but there's no good way to reference them later. Onboarding new people means scrolling through months of history.
- Creates a searchable knowledge base from Slack discussions
- Simplifies onboarding by centralizing team decisions and learnings
- Reduces duplicate questions by preserving answers in Telegram
- Protects institutional knowledge from being lost in Slack threads
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Telegram integrations to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When important discussions happen in specific Slack channels, export them as documents to my Telegram knowledge base.'
- 3Select 'Channel Message Received' as the trigger.
- 4Point it to your Telegram documentation channel.
- 5Post a test discussion thread and verify it's exported as a document in Telegram.
Questions about this workflow
Which messages qualify as 'important discussions'?
You define it. Ask Notis to export threads with multiple replies, or those from certain people (e.g., leadership).
What happens to replies in threads?
Notis includes the entire thread in the exported document so context is preserved.
How is the document formatted?
Notis creates readable text or PDF documents with timestamps, participants, and message order intact.
