Armoury → Telegram: Checklist-Due Notifications (via Plumber)

Overview

This step-by-step guide shows how to send Telegram notifications when an Armoury team has checklists due, using Plumber as the integration layer.

Prerequisites

  • A Telegram bot and its target chat (bot added to the group/channel).

  • Access to both Armoury as a Team Admin/Agency Admin and Plumber.

  • Must access the Armoury Admin Portal on a laptop/desktop

Steps

  1. In Armoury: Open the team you want to notify and click Add Notification.

  1. Select the button "Add Notification" to create your notification

  1. You will see this page:

  1. In Plumber: go to https://plumber.gov.sgarrow-up-right and sign in.

  2. Create a new Pipe named “<TeamName> — Armoury Reminder”

    • Example: “Marina Bay — Armoury Reminder”

  3. Choose Webhook as the trigger.

  1. Copy the Webhook URL from Plumber and paste it into the Armoury notification’s webhook field.

  2. Back in Armoury, click Send Data to push a live sample payload to Plumber (so Plumber can infer the data structure).

  1. In Plumber, on the webhook step, click Check Step to retrieve and view the sample data from Armoury.

  1. Click Add Step (left panel) and select Telegram.

  2. When asked for a connection, link your Telegram bot to Plumber.

Example:

Do not be worried if you see "No list found" that is because no checklist is due at 11.21am

  1. Once you received the telegram message, you must make sure to:

    1. In Plumber, click Publish to publish your Plumber pipe.

    2. Back in Armoury: update the team so it uses this new notification.
