Tell me on Telegram when an automation fails

When any of your other automations fails, Minda posts a notice and sends the step and the reason to your Telegram. It is a ready-made workflow in Minda Super Intelligence, and you can change any step before you save it. It runs in the Minda app on your computer while Minda is open. It starts when an automation fails.

It runs in the Minda app: Automations → Templates → Tell me on Telegram when an automation fails. Minda Super Intelligence for Windows is coming soon.

What you get

  • The step that failed The message names the rule that failed and the step it stopped at.

  • The reason, in words It includes the reason the step failed, which tells you what to fix before you open Minda.

  • In Minda and on Telegram You get a notice in Minda and a Telegram message from your own bot to your own chat.
