Auto-Create Slack Channels for Telegram Threads
When a major project discussion starts in Telegram, Notis instantly creates a dedicated Slack channel so your team can focus without clutter.
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
Create a channel-based conversation
Creates a new public or private slack channel with a unique name; the channel can be org-wide, or team-specific if `team id` is given (required if `org wide` is false or not provided).
Why this helps
Important discussions get mixed with noise in a general Telegram chat. Without a dedicated space, context gets lost and people miss critical updates.
- New channels auto-created when focused topics emerge
- Reduces noise in general chat
- Team can find related discussions easily
- Structured conversation spaces with minimal setup
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Slack to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with trigger 'New Message Received' in your Telegram workspace chat.
- 3Write the prompt: 'If this message introduces a new project or topic, create a Slack channel named after it and post a summary'.
- 4Test by starting a project discussion in Telegram and watch the Slack channel spawn automatically.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know what's a new project vs. regular chat?
You train it by specifying keywords, patterns, or message formats. E.g., 'Project: X' or messages from a certain person.
Can I customize the channel name format?
Yes. Your prompt can specify naming conventions like 'project-[name]' or 'topic-[date]'.
What if the channel already exists?
Notis will check first and post to the existing channel instead of creating a duplicate.
