1. What is Clip Assistant
The idea behind Clip Assistant is simple: integrate ETN into the chat tools and apps you already use, so clipping fits naturally into your workflow instead of requiring you to switch apps.
Prerequisites:
- ETN account registered (via Mini Program or extension)
- Notion authorization completed
- Target database configured
2. Telegram Bot
Send links to @etn_clip_bot on Telegram and they're automatically clipped to Notion.
Best for: Regular Telegram users, or anyone who wants to clip across devices (phone + desktop).

Step 1: Find the Bot
Search for @etn_clip_bot in Telegram and tap "Start" to begin the conversation.
Step 2: Get a binding code
Open ETN Mini Program → Personal center → Telegram Bot → tap "Get binding code".
A binding command is generated in this format:
/bind xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Tap "Copy binding command" — the command is copied to your clipboard.
The binding code is valid for 5 minutes. If it expires, generate a new one.
Step 3: Send the binding command
Go back to Telegram, paste the command into the @etn_clip_bot chat, and send it.
The Bot replies "Binding successful" to confirm.
Step 4: Confirm status
Return to the mini program and tap "Refresh status" — the page shows "✓ Connected".
