Notis

Apply grade object corrections from one request

Send the grade object identifier and intended replacement data with a correction request. Notis processes the text and updates the specified item.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Grade Object

Updates a grade item, replacing its existing data.

Why this helps

Grade configuration corrections can get lost between messages and the Brightspace course where the change must be made.

  • Keeps correction context with the requested change.
  • Uses Abstract to process the submitted text.
  • Reports whether the Brightspace update was attempted successfully.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and D2L Brightspace once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and supply its name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to process the correction text with Abstract and update the identified grade object using the complete replacement data supplied in the request.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real grade object and a carefully checked replacement.

Questions about this workflow

Will this make only a partial change?

The listed update action replaces the grade object's data. Include the complete intended replacement data in the request.

Can Abstract decide a student's grade?

This workflow processes a correction request; it does not provide grading policy or derive a grade. Supply the intended grade object data explicitly.

What if the request lacks the grade object identifier?

Notis should report the missing information and avoid making an update.
