New charges, invoices and refunds in Stripe can be posted to a Telegram chat with the customer details attached, and messages or button presses in Telegram can trigger Stripe work like refunding a charge or cancelling a subscription. The agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

Yes. The New Update trigger in Telegram covers new messages and button presses, so a message carrying a charge id can create a refund by charge id in Stripe, and a confirmation press can cancel a subscription. ### ### Can a Telegram message include details that are not in the Stripe trigger itself? Yes. The agent can add a lookup step such as Get Customer, Get Invoice or Get Charge in Stripe before sending, so the Telegram message carries the name, email or invoice details you want. ### ### What can start an automation from Stripe? Any of Stripe's 11 triggers in the catalog, including New Charge, New Charge (instant), New Invoice and New Refund. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Telegram when something happens in Stripe? Any of Telegram's 14 actions, including Send Document, Send Message, Send Chat Action and Send Location. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Telegram to Stripe? Yes. When something happens in Telegram, your agent can act in Stripe too. This page covers both directions: Telegram's triggers and Stripe's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Stripe or Telegram? No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. ### ### Can my AI client use Stripe and Telegram without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
