Star Important Telegram Messages in Slack
When you flag a message in Telegram, Notis instantly stars it in Slack so you can find it in seconds when you need it.
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
Add a star to an item
Stars a channel, file, file comment, or a specific message in slack.
Why this helps
Trying to find that one critical Telegram message later is like searching a haystack. No system for marking important items means you waste time re-reading conversations.
- Build a starred-message archive in Slack for quick reference
- Find critical information instantly without scrolling
- Reduce time spent searching for past decisions or data
- Visual marker of importance without creating new channels
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Slack integrations to Notis.
- 2Create a new automation with trigger 'New Message Received' in Telegram.
- 3Write the automation: 'Star this message in Slack whenever it contains [your criteria, like a specific keyword or emoji reaction]'.
- 4Test by sending a message with your trigger keyword and verify it's starred in Slack.
Questions about this workflow
How do I decide what gets starred?
You define it. Common patterns: messages with specific keywords, emojis (like a pin emoji), or from certain people.
Can I search starred messages in Slack?
Yes. Slack's 'from:me has:star' filter in the search bar shows all starred messages in one view.
Do starred messages need to live in a specific Slack channel?
No. Notis can star messages across channels. It's a personal organization tool.
