Create Slack User Groups from Telegram Team Lists
When you mention a team in Telegram (like 'engineering team' or '@devs'), Notis automatically creates or updates a Slack user group.
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 a Slack user group
Creates a new user group (often referred to as a subteam) in a slack workspace.
Why this helps
Managing Slack user groups manually is tedious. Teams evolve in Telegram but the Slack groups fall out of sync, causing missed notifications.
- User groups auto-sync with team changes
- Easier to @-mention teams in Slack channels
- Reduces manual group membership updates
- Scales as your team grows
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Slack to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with trigger 'New Message Received' in your Telegram workspace.
- 3Write the prompt: 'When someone mentions a team (like @engineering or @support), create or update a Slack user group with that name'.
- 4Test by mentioning a team in Telegram and verify the Slack user group appears.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which people belong to each team?
You define this in your automation prompt or by tagging people with roles/teams in Telegram.
Can I prevent Notis from creating user groups for certain teams?
Yes. Specify exclusions in your prompt, like 'ignore freelancer mentions' or 'only track internal teams'.
What if the team membership changes?
Update your Telegram message or create a new one with the revised list, and Notis will sync it to Slack.
