Review quiz submissions in one scheduled summary

Bring quiz submission details into a recurring report to reduce the work of checking results manually.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get quiz submissions

Retrieves all submissions for a specific quiz within a course; ensure `course id` and `quiz id` are valid and the quiz belongs to the course.

Why this helps

Opening quiz submissions one at a time adds friction to routine course reviews.

  • Gather quiz submissions for a specified quiz.
  • Review returned submission details in one report.
  • Reduce repetitive navigation in Canvas.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve submissions for the specified course and quiz, then summarize only the returned data.
  • 4Pick the Notis cron trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real quiz and check the summary against its returned submissions.

Questions about this workflow

Does this grade or change submissions?

No. It retrieves quiz submissions and summarizes the returned data.

Can it identify missing submissions?

Only if the returned data supports that comparison or you provide the expected roster or baseline.
