Pdf RAG agent with Telegram chat & auto-ingestion from Google Drive

How it works

This workflow creates an intelligent document assistant called "Mookie" that can answer questions based on your uploaded documents. Here's how it operates:

• Document Ingestion: The system can automatically load PDF files from Google Drive or accept PDFs uploaded directly through Telegram, then processes and stores them in a PostgreSQL vector database using Mistral embeddings
• Smart Retrieval: When users ask questions via Telegram or a web chat interface, the AI agent searches through the stored documents to find relevant information using vector similarity matching
• Contextual Responses: Using GPT-4 and the retrieved document context, Mookie provides accurate answers based solely on the ingested documents, avoiding hallucination by refusing to answer questions not covered in the stored materials
• Memory & Conversation: The system maintains conversation history for each user, allowing for natural follow-up questions and contextual discussions

Set up steps

Estimated setup time: 30-45 minutes You'll need to configure several external services and credentials:

• Set up a PostgreSQL database with PGVector extension for document storage
• Create accounts and API keys for Azure OpenAI (GPT-4), Mistral Cloud (embeddings), and Google Drive access
  • Connect your own LLM's if you don't have these credentials.
• Configure a Telegram bot and obtain API credentials for chat functionality
• Update webhook URLs throughout the workflow to match your n8n instance
• Test the document ingestion pipeline with sample PDFs
• Verify the chat interfaces (both Telegram and web) are responding correctly

>The workflow includes approval mechanisms for PDF ingestion and handles both automated bulk processing from Google Drive and real-time document uploads through Telegram. Read the sticky notes provided in the template code for clear instructions.
