Summary
This workflow automates adding details from receipts to Google Sheets using six different nodes: Telegram Trigger, HTTP Request, Set, Google Sheets, Telegram, and Twilio. The workflow takes a picture of a receipt with Telegram, parses the information out of it with Mindee API, selects relevant data with a Set node, adds expense records to Google Sheets, sends confirmation of added expenses through Telegram, and sends an SMS notification with Twilio. The workflow can be used for digitizing household expenses, reimbursements, and tax returns, saving time and effort in the long run.
