Attach Telegram Messages to Linear Issues
Context matters. When an important message is shared in Telegram, Notis saves it as an attachment on the corresponding Linear issue so your team has the full conversation history in one place.
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 linear attachment
Creates a new attachment and associates it with a specific, existing linear issue.
Why this helps
Important context lives in Telegram but Linear issues only have the headline. Your team needs to context-switch to Telegram to understand the full situation. When Telegram history purges or people leave, critical context is lost.
- Full conversation context is attached to the issue
- Team doesn't need to context-switch to Telegram for details
- Conversation history is archived in Linear permanently
- Self-contained issues with all supporting context
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Linear to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When an important message is shared in Telegram, save it as an attachment on the corresponding Linear issue.'
- 3Define what makes a message 'important' (keyword, emoji reaction, channel, etc.).
- 4Notis will capture the message text and metadata and attach it to the Linear issue.
- 5Test by tagging a sample message and verify the attachment appears in Linear.
Questions about this workflow
What format is the attachment in?
Notis saves it as a text file with the message content, sender, timestamp, and any metadata. You can view it directly in Linear.
Can I attach media like images or videos from Telegram?
Yes. Notis can capture and attach image files, videos, or links to media from Telegram messages.
Will the original Telegram message remain in the chat?
Yes. Attaching to Linear doesn't delete or modify the Telegram message. It's a copy for archival.
