Send Telegram group messages for new Formium submissions

Every new Formium submission is posted as a text message to your Telegram group, so the people who act on form entries see them in the chat they already use.

Formium Telegram

The Send Telegram group messages for new Formium submissions workflow on the FlowMattic canvas, with 2 steps across Formium, Telegram
The workflow as it appears in the builder after import. Each step opens for editing.

What this workflow does

Form entries that sit in a dashboard wait until someone remembers to log in. If your team coordinates in Telegram, the quickest way to get eyes on a new entry is to put it in the group chat. This workflow does that for each Formium submission.

The Formium trigger fires when a new form submission is received, and the answers become fields you can use. The Telegram step then sends a text message to the group you choose. You write the message once, mapping in the answers you want people to see. The action supports markup, so you can bold a label or put the important answer first.

Every submission produces one message, since there is no condition between the steps. After import, connect Telegram, choose the group and write the message text. A test entry shows which Formium fields you can map, and Task History records what was sent each time.

Sales enquiries for a small team

A Formium enquiry form on your website posts each new lead into the sales team's Telegram group, so whoever is free can pick it up.

Event volunteers signing up

Volunteers register through a Formium form. Organisers see each name and preferred shift in their Telegram group as it arrives.

Bug reports from beta users

Testers report problems through a Formium form. Developers get each report in their Telegram group with the steps the tester described.

How this workflow runs

What happens at each step once the workflow is on, and what you need before you import it.

  1. Step 1Trigger
    Formium New Form Submission

    Runs when Formium receives a new form submission. Every answer is passed on for use in the Telegram message.

  2. Step 2Action
    Telegram Send a Text Message

    Sends a text message with the submission details to the Telegram group you choose. Write the message and map in the Formium answers; markup is supported for simple formatting.

What you need

  • FlowMatticCore
  • Formium AccountAccount
  • Telegram AccountAccount

After importing, map your own data. To keep the template universal, not every step is pre-filled. Open each step in the builder and connect your accounts and fields (channels, lists, sheets, recipients) before you switch the workflow on.

Make it yours

Changes worth making after you import it.

  • Add a Filter after the trigger if only some entries matter, for example ones where a Topic answer equals Sales.
  • Put the most important answer, such as the name or the request type, on the first line of the Telegram message so it shows in notification previews.
  • Use a Router with two Telegram steps if different kinds of entry belong in different groups, giving each route a condition that can't overlap with the other.

Questions about this workflow

Can the Formium alert go to a Telegram group rather than one person?

Yes, that is what this template is for. Telegram only lets a bot post in a group it belongs to, so add your bot to the group before you test.

Do all my Formium forms trigger this?

Each new submission the trigger receives produces a message. If you use several forms, run a test and add a Filter on the form if you want only one of them.

Can I format the Telegram message?

Yes. The Send a Text Message action supports markup, so you can use simple formatting such as bold labels.

Are files uploaded through Formium sent to Telegram?

Not by this template. It sends a text message only. You could map a file link into the text if Formium passes one.

It is self hosted and wordpress based. So you can effectively run this on any shared hosting with unlimited tasks. And new integrations are constantly being added. It's crazy how valuable this tool is.

The software works really well, and the team is adding integrations constantly, so I'm positive it eventually will catch up with Zapier. The flows are very easy to create and if you have any doubt, the team will give you great support.
