Turn Telegram Channel Posts into Scheduled Task Reminders
When you post a project update or deadline in your Telegram channel, Notis immediately creates a Slack reminder timed for when action is needed.
Trigger
New Channel Post
Triggered when a new post is published to a channel where your bot is an administrator.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Project deadlines posted in Telegram are missed because the reminder doesn't sync to Slack. Manual reminder creation feels redundant and doesn't happen.
- Never miss a deadline posted in Telegram
- Reminders appear in Slack where you check your tasks
- Automatic timing based on post content
- Reduces manual task entry across tools
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Slack to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with trigger 'New Channel Post' in your Telegram channel.
- 3Write the prompt: 'Create a Slack reminder based on the deadline mentioned in this post, scheduled for [e.g., the day before]'.
- 4Test by posting a test announcement with a date and verify the reminder appears in Slack.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis extract the deadline from the post?
You tell Notis the pattern to look for in your prompt, like 'Due: [date]' or 'by [day of week]'.
Can I set reminders for multiple time intervals?
Yes. Create separate automations: one reminder the week before, another reminder the day before, etc.
What if the post doesn't include a specific date?
Your automation can default to a standard reminder time, or ask Notis to request clarification.
