Fireflies to Telegram: Transcript Export & Archive
Transcripts are business records. Fireflies holds them, but Notis exports each one as a file and posts it to Telegram, so you have a searchable archive independent of Fireflies.
Trigger
Transcription Complete Trigger
Triggers when a transcription is complete. Polls Fireflies API for transcripts created or updated since the last poll time. Handles rate limiting gracefully.
Action
Send Document
Send general files (documents) to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Relying solely on Fireflies means if their API changes or you cancel, you lose your call history. A distributed archive in Telegram (plus version control) gives you peace of mind and a searchable backup of critical conversations.
- Independent backup of all transcripts
- Searchable archive in Telegram
- Avoid vendor lock-in risk
- Full business record for compliance and reference
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Fireflies and Telegram to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a transcription completes, export it as a document and send it to my Telegram archive channel.'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Transcription Complete' and choose a Telegram channel dedicated to archiving transcripts.
- 4Notis exports each transcript as a .txt or .pdf file and posts it to the channel.
- 5Test: after a call is transcribed, verify the document appears in Telegram and is searchable/downloadable.
Questions about this workflow
Can I filter which transcripts get exported?
Yes. Tell Notis to export only transcripts matching certain keywords (e.g., 'client calls only') or from specific people. You control the scope with plain language.
What format are the exported files?
Notis can export as plain text, markdown, or PDF (with formatting). Let Notis know your preference when setting up the automation.
Does this work if Fireflies is down or the API limits?
Notis relies on Fireflies' transcription service. If Fireflies is down, no transcription completes, so nothing exports. The export itself is reliable—Notis retries if Telegram is briefly unavailable.
