Notis

Share scheduled IP review findings across Blackboard

Bring a useful summary to the people who need it without manually moving analysis into Blackboard.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create system announcement

Creates a system-wide announcement.

Why this helps

Review findings can stay buried in an analysis tool while the wider team misses the follow-up.

  • Turns supplied IP data into an actionable summary
  • Shares the result across the Blackboard environment
  • Makes recurring reviews easier to keep visible

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Blackboard once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis to enrich the IP data you provide with Abstract and create a concise Blackboard system announcement with findings and a clear next step.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real data set and review the system announcement.
