Turn Telegram Questions into Gmail Email Searches
When a team member asks a question in Telegram, Notis searches Gmail for related emails and links them right in the chat. No switching apps, full context in seconds.
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
Fetch emails
Fetches a list of email messages from a gmail account, supporting filtering, pagination, and optional full content retrieval.
Why this helps
Neurodivergent founders repeat explanations because they don't quickly find the historical email context. Questions get answered incompletely because relevant information is buried.
- Provide complete answers by surfacing historical context automatically
- Reduce repeated questions by linking relevant past emails
- Keep conversations in Telegram without manual searching
- Build institutional knowledge without leaving the chat
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Gmail in Notis.
- 2Create your automation: 'When someone asks a question in Telegram, search Gmail for related emails and show me the results.'
- 3Set 'New Message Received' as your trigger and choose Telegram for notifications.
- 4Ask a test question in Telegram and verify related Gmail emails surface in seconds.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know what to search for?
Notis reads the question and automatically identifies keywords, like 'how to reset passwords' and searches Gmail for 'password reset.'
Will I be flooded with search results?
Notis surfaces the top 3-5 most relevant emails. You can ask for more or refine the search in plain language.
Can I set up specific search filters?
Yes. Tell Notis 'only search in emails from 2024 onward' or 'search only in [specific project] emails.'
