Connect Notion to Telegram

Notion is where you keep tasks, notes and CRM records, and Telegram is the fastest way to reach them from your phone. Connect them to capture messages and voice notes into Notion, manage tasks from a chat, and get digests and reminders where you will see them.

Build your own

Build any Notion and Telegram automation you can describe

The ideas above are ready-made starting points, not a fixed list. Describe what should happen between Notion and Telegram in your own words, with your conditions, other apps or an AI step, and your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.
  • Your own rules

    Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.

  • Any number of apps

    One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.

  • AI where it helps

    Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.

  • On a schedule or on each event

    Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

For example, ask your assistant

When I message my bot with 'task' and some text, create a Notion task, and use AI to set the due date if the text mentions a day like Friday.

Every evening, send me a Telegram message only if there are Notion tasks marked High priority that are not done, listing each with its due date.

Use cases

Why people connect Notion and Telegram

How the two apps work together

  • Messages you send to your Telegram bot reach ClickRuntime instantly through the bot's webhook and are written to a Notion database.
  • For Notion to Telegram, ClickRuntime checks the database every few minutes or on a schedule and sends a message for new or changed pages.
  • AI can parse free text messages into properties such as date, amount or tag before they are saved.
  • Capture ideas from your phone into Notion

    Writers and founders send a quick Telegram message to their bot. It lands as a page in a Notion Inbox database with the date and any tags you type.

  • Daily task list in Telegram

    Freelancers who check Telegram more than Notion get a morning message. It lists today's Notion tasks and anything overdue.

  • Team updates in a Telegram group

    Small teams that coordinate in a Telegram group want to know when a Notion task is finished. A short post with the task name and owner keeps everyone current.

  • Log expenses or habits by message

    People track spending or habits in Notion but rarely open it on the go. Sending a message like 'lunch 12.50' adds a row with amount, category and date.

More apps

Notion, Telegram and other apps in one automation

An automation isn't limited to two apps. Add the next step in another app and it runs as part of the same automation.

Telegram morning brief from Notion and Calendar

Every day at 7am, send me a Telegram message with my Google Calendar events and my Notion tasks due today.

Mirror Telegram tasks into Todoist and Notion

When I send 'todo' and some text to my Telegram bot, add it to Todoist for today and log it in my Notion Tasks database.

Expense messages to Notion and a monthly sheet

When I text an expense to my Telegram bot, add it to Notion, and on the 1st of each month write last month's totals by category to a Google Sheet.

Setup

Connect Notion and Telegram once

Every idea on this page uses the same two connections, so you set them up once. If one is missing, your assistant tells you and links to the right place.

Notion

Productivity / Docs

  1. In Notion, open the developer portal at notion.so/profile/integrations and create a new internal integration.
  2. On its Configuration tab, copy the integration secret.
  3. On each page or database the automation should use, open ••• → Add connections and pick your integration.
  4. In the ClickRuntime dashboard, open Connections & secrets and save the secret as a secret for Notion.

Telegram

Messaging

  1. In Telegram, open a chat with @BotFather and send /newbot.
  2. Choose a name and a username for your bot, then copy the token BotFather sends (it looks like 123456:ABC-...).
  3. Open your new bot and press Start, so it is allowed to message you. For groups or channels, add the bot and give it admin rights if it should post or delete.
  4. In the ClickRuntime dashboard, open Connections & secrets and save the bot token.

The script can check the sender's Telegram user ID and ignore messages from anyone you have not allowed.

How do I create the bot?
