Keep grade object details aligned with approved guidance
Give Notis the approved grade object details and a recurring schedule. Abstract processes the supplied text, and Brightspace receives the complete replacement data for each identified item.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Update Grade Object
Updates a grade item, replacing its existing data.
Why this helps
Approved grading changes can sit in reference text while course grade objects remain outdated.
- Creates a recurring reminder to apply approved details.
- Processes reference text with Abstract.
- Makes the replacement-data requirement visible in the workflow instruction.
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 provide a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to process the supplied approved guidance with Abstract and update only the identified grade objects using complete replacement data.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real grade object and approved replacement details.
Questions about this workflow
Does this fetch the approved guidance automatically?
No. The approved text and the grade object identifiers must be supplied to the automation or otherwise made available to it.
Could this overwrite existing grade object details?
Yes. The listed update action completely replaces the grade object's data, so provide and review the full intended replacement.
Does the schedule determine which grade objects change?
No. The instruction must identify the intended grade objects and the source of their approved replacement details.
