Create question categories from course plans

Turn a defined course topic into a Classmarker question category with less setup overhead.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create a new question category

Creates a new question category.

Why this helps

Question banks become harder to maintain when category setup gets postponed during course preparation.

  • Make question bank organization part of course preparation.
  • Use course topic details from submitted planning text.
  • Avoid creating a category when its parent is not confirmed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Classmarker once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis to process the course plan with Abstract and create a question category under the supplied existing parent category only when the category name is clear.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real course plan and a confirmed parent category ID.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a parent category?

No. The action creates a new question category and should be used after confirming the parent category ID.

Can the automation choose the parent category on its own?

Supply the parent category ID or a clear rule and the account information needed to identify it. The action requires a confirmed parent ID.
