Question 1

Can a new Drive file trigger a Telegram message?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Drive change trigger detects new files, and the Telegram send-message operation posts to a chat or channel. You can include the filename and link in the message text.

Question 2

How do I save Telegram files into Google Drive?

Accepted Answer

Telegram can receive incoming messages with documents or photos via its webhook operations. A workflow then uses the file download info and the Drive upload-file step to store the attachment in a folder.

Question 3

Can NoClick send the actual file to Telegram, not just a link?

Accepted Answer

It can. The Telegram node has send-document and send-photo operations, so after downloading a file from Drive a workflow can deliver it directly into the chat.

Question 4

Is this suitable for a Telegram channel of updates?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use the Drive trigger or a scheduled list-files run, then post to a channel with the Telegram send-message-to-channel operation so followers get notified of new documents.
