Listen for brand mentions: Telegram

Runs on a schedule across Telegram and Google Sheets, runs the text through an AI chain, then reads the feed and keeps only what is new. Built for cross-posting, around a "Read Source Feed" step, in 9 documented nodes.

Listen for brand mentions with Google Sheets and Telegram. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Social Listening' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 9 nodes across Telegram, Google Sheets. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. Your team sees the right data at the right time.

Key benefits

  • Keeps Telegram and Google Sheets in step for cross-posting, without anyone re-typing a row
  • Safe to re-run: records already in Telegram or Google Sheets are skipped, across all 9 nodes of this cross-posting build
  • A failed Telegram or Google Sheets call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 9 nodes in this cross-posting build
  • The cross-posting AI step is isolated from Telegram, so models swap without touching the other 9 nodes
  • Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 9 nodes for cross-posting before wiring Telegram

Use cases

  • Teams keeping Telegram and Google Sheets aligned by hand for cross-posting
  • Cross-posting work where "Read Source Feed" is still a manual step before Telegram
  • Cross-posting work that only reaches Telegram on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

What you'll learn

Foundation level

A starter-sized build - small enough to hold in your head while you learn the pattern.

  • Polling a feed and deduplicating across executions
  • Pulling an RSS feed on a schedule and shaping each entry
  • Cross-posting to several channels in parallel

Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.

Common questions

What exactly do I get?

The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.

How do I import it into n8n?

In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.

Do I need anything else for it to work?

You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Telegram, Google Sheets). No coding is required.

What if it doesn't work for me?

If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.

Can I modify or resell it?

You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
