Workflow templateAsk a Telegram bot for your agenda and inbox
Replies to /today with your calendar and open tasks and to /inbox with a one-line summary of each unread email. After publishing, you pick a secret token in Whenever and pass it with the webhook address to Telegram's setWebhook; one bot serves one workflow.
