IND Appointment helper

Telegram bot that helps with tracking open slots at IND in the Netherlands.

Interactions with the bot

Bot tag in Telegram - @ind_appointment_helper_bot. Find it by name in Telegram and initiate a chat with it (command /start will be sent). To start tracking a particular location execute command from chat:

/track

You will be prompted to select one of the available appointment types. Depending on the type you will be presented with the set of available locations that provide such appointments. Then you can select number of people - 1 to 6. Optionally, if you are only interested in time windows before particular date you can specify it in YYYY-MM-DD format, otherwise you can specify tracking all time slots.

After that you will receive notifications about open windows with mention of the first available window and number of other possible options. Notifications do not start after the first one and might repeat the same information.

To stop tracking execute command:

/stoptrack
