Weekly Telegram Summaries in Notion
Every Monday morning, a new Notion page appears with a curated summary of last week's Telegram discussions, organized by topic and importance.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Why this helps
Telegram moves too fast to follow live. You need a weekly digest that lets you catch up asynchronously without skimming weeks of chat.
- Catch important context on your schedule
- Structured summaries are easier to process than raw chat
- Discover topics you might have missed
- Built-in audit trail for the week
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Create a Notion folder called 'Weekly Telegram Summaries'.
- 2Connect Telegram and Notion to Notis.
- 3Create an automation with prompt: 'Every Monday at 9 AM, create a new Notion page titled "Week of [date]" and summarize last week's Telegram activity by topic, including key decisions, questions, and action items. Organize by channel.'
- 4Select 'Cron trigger' and set for Mondays at 9 AM.
- 5On Monday morning, the page auto-generates. Review and iterate on the prompt for better summaries.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis decide what's important?
You can refine the prompt to prioritize messages with keywords, from certain users, or with reactions. Start broad and tune over time.
Can I include attachments and media?
Notis summarizes text and can reference media types. For full attachment archiving, set up a separate automation.
What if nothing happened that week?
Notis still creates the page but notes it was quiet. Useful for tracking slow weeks.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Telegram to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Telegram triggers
Notion actions
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.
Add multiple content blocks (bulk, user-friendly)
Efficiently adds multiple standard content blocks to a notion page in a single api call with automatic markdown parsing. the 'content' field in notionrichtext blocks now automatically detects and parses markdown formatting including headers (# ## ###), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), strikethrough (~~text~~), inline code (`code`), links ([text](url)), and more. ideal for bulk content creation, ai agents, and replacing multiple individual add page content calls. supports automatic text formatting, content splitting, and up to 100 blocks per request.
New Channel Post
Triggered when a new post is published to a channel where your bot is an administrator.
Add content to Notion page
Deprecated: appends a single content block to a notion page or a parent block (must be page, toggle, to-do, bulleted/numbered list, callout, or quote); invoke repeatedly to add multiple blocks.
Callback Query Received
Triggered when a user taps an inline keyboard button attached to one of your bot's messages.
Append complex blocks (advanced, full control)
Appends complex blocks with full notion block structure to a parent block or page. use for advanced scenarios requiring precise control: code blocks, tables, embeds, nested children within blocks, or when working with pre-built notion block objects. requires full notion api block schema - use add multiple page content for simpler content creation.
Message Edited
Triggered when a message in a chat your bot can see is edited by its sender.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
New Chat Member
Triggered when a new member joins a group or supergroup the bot belongs to, including when the bot itself is added.

Create Notion Database
Creates a new notion database as a subpage under a specified parent page with a defined properties schema; use this action exclusively for creating new databases.
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Delete a block
Archives a notion block, page, or database using its id, which sets its 'archived' property to true (like moving to "trash" in the ui) and allows it to be restored later.
