Notis

Review learner contact emails on a schedule

Set a recurring review for a defined set of Brightspace users. Notis checks their supplied email addresses with Abstract and applies only explicitly provided verified corrections.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Update User

Updates an existing user account.

Why this helps

Contact details can go stale, and reviewing them across separate systems can turn into a recurring manual chore.

  • Makes a recurring contact review easier to track.
  • Uses Abstract to validate supplied email addresses.
  • Avoids inventing replacement addresses when an email is invalid.

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 retrieve the specified Brightspace users, validate their available email addresses with Abstract, and update only records with an explicitly supplied verified replacement address.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real user record and confirm the report shows the validation result.

Questions about this workflow

Can this find every user with an invalid email automatically?

The listed Get Users action supports optional search parameters, but the workflow needs a defined user set or search approach. Do not assume it can discover invalid addresses without reviewing the returned records.

Will it invent a corrected address?

No. A replacement address must be supplied and validated before Notis updates a user.

How often does it run?

Choose the recurring schedule when creating the automation in Notis.
