n8n AI Telegram Bot for Schedule and Contact Management

This n8n workflow provides an intelligent Telegram bot that can manage schedules and contacts using an AI agent powered by GPT-4o Mini and integrated with Google services. It acts as a conversational interface to automate common administrative tasks.

What it does

This workflow automates the following steps:

  1. Listens for Telegram messages: The workflow is triggered whenever a user sends a message to the configured Telegram bot.
  2. Processes messages with an AI Agent: The incoming Telegram message is fed into an AI Agent (likely configured with GPT-4o Mini). This agent is equipped with:
    • OpenAI Chat Model: To understand natural language commands and generate responses.
    • Simple Memory: To maintain conversational context across interactions.
    • SerpApi (Google Search) Tool: To perform web searches for information that might be relevant to scheduling or contact details (e.g., current time, location details, public information about contacts).
    • Wikipedia Tool: To retrieve general knowledge that might be useful for understanding context or providing information.
  3. Responds via Telegram: The AI agent's generated response, based on the user's query and the information gathered from its tools, is sent back to the user as a Telegram message.

This setup allows users to interact with the bot in natural language to perform tasks like:

  • "Schedule a meeting for tomorrow at 3 PM with John Doe about project X."
  • "What's John Doe's phone number?" (assuming it has access to a contact list via a Google service tool, which would need to be added to the AI Agent's tools)
  • "Remind me to call Sarah next Tuesday."
  • "Find out the current time in London."

Prerequisites/Requirements

To use this workflow, you will need:

  • n8n Instance: A running n8n instance.
  • Telegram Bot Token: A Telegram bot created via BotFather.
  • OpenAI API Key: For the OpenAI Chat Model (likely GPT-4o Mini, as suggested by the directory name).
  • SerpApi API Key: For the SerpApi (Google Search) tool.
  • Google Services Credentials: While not explicitly shown in the provided JSON, the directory name "google-services" suggests that the AI agent is intended to interact with Google Calendar, Google Contacts, or Google Sheets. You would need to configure the appropriate Google service credentials and add corresponding tools to the AI Agent node within the workflow.

Setup/Usage

  1. Import the workflow: Download the provided JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
  2. Configure Telegram Trigger:
    • Add your Telegram Bot Token to the "Telegram Trigger" node's credentials.
    • Activate the workflow. This will set up the webhook for your Telegram bot.
  3. Configure AI Agent:
    • OpenAI Chat Model: Add your OpenAI API Key to the "OpenAI Chat Model" node's credentials.
    • SerpApi: Add your SerpApi API Key to the "SerpApi" node's credentials.
    • Wikipedia: This tool does not typically require specific credentials, but ensure it's correctly configured.
    • Memory: The "Simple Memory" node is usually self-contained and doesn't require external credentials.
    • Add Google Service Tools (if applicable): If you intend to manage schedules and contacts using Google services, you will need to add appropriate n8n Google nodes (e.g., Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Google Sheets) as tools within the "AI Agent" node and configure their credentials.
  4. Activate the workflow: Once all credentials and configurations are set, activate the workflow.
  5. Interact with your bot: Send messages to your Telegram bot, and the AI agent will process them and respond.

Automate Dutch Public Procurement Data Collection with TenderNed

TenderNed Public Procurement What This Workflow Does This workflow automates the collection of public procurement data from TenderNed (the official Dutch tender platform). It: Fetches the latest tender publications from the TenderNed API Retrieves detailed information in both XML and JSON formats for each tender Parses and extracts key information like organization names, titles, descriptions, and reference numbers Filters results based on your custom criteria Stores the data in a database for easy querying and analysis Setup Instructions This template comes with sticky notes providing step-by-step instructions in Dutch and various query options you can customize. Prerequisites TenderNed API Access - Register at TenderNed for API credentials Configuration Steps Set up TenderNed credentials: Add HTTP Basic Auth credentials with your TenderNed API username and password Apply these credentials to the three HTTP Request nodes: "Tenderned Publicaties" "Haal XML Details" "Haal JSON Details" Customize filters: Modify the "Filter op ..." node to match your specific requirements Examples: specific organizations, contract values, regions, etc. How It Works Step 1: Trigger The workflow can be triggered either manually for testing or automatically on a daily schedule. Step 2: Fetch Publications Makes an API call to TenderNed to retrieve a list of recent publications (up to 100 per request). Step 3: Process & Split Extracts the tender array from the response and splits it into individual items for processing. Step 4: Fetch Details For each tender, the workflow makes two parallel API calls: XML endpoint - Retrieves the complete tender documentation in XML format JSON endpoint - Fetches metadata including reference numbers and keywords Step 5: Parse & Merge Parses the XML data and merges it with the JSON metadata and batch information into a single data structure. Step 6: Extract Fields Maps the raw API data to clean, structured fields including: Publication ID and date Organization name Tender title and description Reference numbers (kenmerk, TED number) Step 7: Filter Applies your custom filter criteria to focus on relevant tenders only. Step 8: Store Inserts the processed data into your database for storage and future analysis. Customization Tips Modify API Parameters In the "Tenderned Publicaties" node, you can adjust: offset: Starting position for pagination size: Number of results per request (max 100) Add query parameters for date ranges, status filters, etc. Add More Fields Extend the "Splits Alle Velden" node to extract additional fields from the XML/JSON data, such as: Contract value estimates Deadline dates CPV codes (procurement classification) Contact information Integrate Notifications Add a Slack, Email, or Discord node after the filter to get notified about new matching tenders. Incremental Updates Modify the workflow to only fetch new tenders by: Storing the last execution timestamp Adding date filters to the API query Only processing publications newer than the last run Troubleshooting No data returned? Verify your TenderNed API credentials are correct Check that you have setup youre filter proper Need help setting this up or interested in a complete tender analysis solution?
