Continue browsing Cats portals with one tap

When a reader taps a Telegram button to see more, have Notis fetch the next page of Cats portal metadata.

Trigger

Callback Query Received

Triggered when a user taps an inline keyboard button attached to one of your bot's messages.

Action

Get Portals

Tool to list all portals. use when you need to browse portal metadata with pagination after authentication.

Why this helps

Long portal lists are harder to scan when people must repeatedly restate what they need or manually manage paging.

  • Make a next-page request with a single Telegram button tap.
  • Reduce repeated messages while browsing a longer portal list.
  • Keep directory browsing in the chat where the request began.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Cats to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal, or tell Notis in plain language to fetch the next page of Cats portal metadata when a user taps the directory's next-page button.
  • 3Select Telegram's Callback Query Received trigger.
  • 4Choose where Notis should report automation runs, then test by tapping the inline button in a Telegram message connected to the directory flow.

Questions about this workflow

Can this retrieve later pages of portal metadata?

The Get Portals action supports pagination. The automation prompt should tell Notis to continue from the current browsing context when the next-page button is tapped.
