If you use Telegram to stay connected with your team and stay on top of conversations, integrating it with Fireflies helps bring your meeting insights directly into the same space. After each meeting, Fireflies can send your notes and summaries to Telegram so you can quickly review discussions, track follow-ups, and stay updated without switching between tools.

🧩 Additional Options – Integration Rules

By default, Fireflies sends meeting notes to Telegram after every meeting. While this keeps you updated, you may not always want every meeting included.

Integration Rules help control which meetings send notes to Telegram, so only relevant meetings are delivered.

🗂 All Meetings

Send summaries/notes from every meeting — client calls, internal syncs, interviews, standups, and more — directly to Telegram.

This is the default option and requires no filters.

📝 Meeting Title

Send Telegram summaries/notes only when the meeting title matches specific rules (Contains, Starts With, Equals, Doesn’t Contain).

Example Only send summaries for meetings titled Client Review or Weekly Planning.

👤 Meeting Host

Filter summaries by who hosted the meeting.

• Equals → Only send summaries from meetings hosted by john@example.com.

• Not Equal → Send summaries from all meetings except those hosted by john@example.com.

👥 Meeting Participants

Choose which meetings send summaries based on who attended.

• Contains → Only send summaries when sara@example.com attends.

• Doesn’t Contain → Skip meetings that included alex@example.com.

🎦 Meeting Type

Send summaries only from specific meeting categories.

Example: Equals → External → Only send summaries for client-facing meetings.

🔀 Apply Multiple Filters

Combine rules for precise control over which summaries get delivered to Telegram.

• Example Meeting title contains Interview AND host is john@example.com.

• You can use AND (all conditions must match) or OR (any one condition matches).

You can see all the filters applied to your Telegram configuration. Fireflies will only send summaries to Telegram for meetings that match every rule you’ve set.

✅ Example applied: Title contains "Interview", host = "John", participant = "Mary", type = "External".

💾 Save Your Configuration

Click Save to activate the integration — a flash message will confirm that your configuration has been successfully added.

👥 Team Options

Sometimes, you may not want every teammate creating their own Telegram configurations — especially if your team wants meeting summaries delivered in a consistent way. Team Options allow workspace admins to control whether the integration applies only to them or across the entire workspace.

1. Click the vertical ellipsis (⋮) next to your Telegram integration and select Team Options from the dropdown list.

2. A modal window will appear with these options:

• Apply to entire workspace → Toggle this ON to apply the integration across your Fireflies workspace. Meeting summaries from team meetings accessible by the admin will be sent to Telegram, keeping updates centralized.

📌 Meetings set to private in a teammate’s Privacy Settings won’t be included unless you’re a Super Admin who can access meetings regardless of team privacy settings.

• Restrict non-admin usage → Toggle this ON to prevent non-admin members from creating their own Telegram integration configurations.

3. After adjusting the toggles to fit your team’s workflow, click Save to apply the changes.

🛠 Manage Configuration

Over time, you may need to update your Telegram integration — whether it’s to rename a configuration, update meeting rules, or remove configurations you no longer use. Fireflies makes this easy with a few quick options:

• ✏ Edit Configuration Name → Give Telegram configuration a clear, descriptive name so it’s easy to recognize. Click the configuration name (for example, Default Configuration), type a new name (such as Telegram Meeting Summaries), and click outside the field to save.

  

• ⚙ Edit Configuration Settings → Need to update your meeting rules or configuration settings? Click the vertical ellipsis (⋮) next to a configuration, select Edit, update the meeting rules or filters, and click Update to save your changes.

  

• 🔘 Enable or Disable a Configuration → Use the toggle next to a configuration to control it quickly. Toggle ON to send meeting notes to Telegram; toggle OFF to pause the integration without deleting it.

  

• 🗑 Delete Configuration → If a configuration is no longer needed (for example, you no longer want meeting summaries sent to Telegram), you can delete it. Click the vertical ellipsis (⋮) next to the configuration, select Delete, and confirm.

  

📤 How Messages Appear in Telegram

Once connected, Fireflies automatically sends a formatted summary to your Telegram chat after each meeting. Each message includes:

• Meeting Title & Date — quick context at a glance

• Participants — everyone who joined

• Short Summary — a concise overview of the discussion

• Bullet Gist — key highlights and important points

• Action Items — tasks and follow-ups to act on

You'll also see a See full transcript link — click it to open the complete transcript and summary in your Fireflies Notepad for a deeper review.
