Notis

Clear obsolete quiz report work from credential courses

Keep quiz reporting queues focused by reviewing report requests on a schedule and cancelling only those marked obsolete.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Abort Quiz Report Generation

Cancels quiz report generation or removes a previously generated report.

Why this helps

Old report generation requests can clutter a credential course workflow when nobody remembers to cancel them.

  • Review report requests at a predictable time.
  • Cancel only requests identified as obsolete.
  • Reduce manual checking across credential courses.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Accredible and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe how to identify obsolete quiz report requests using available data, and instruct Notis to abort only confirmed matches.
  • 4Choose a recurring Notis schedule and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real obsolete report request and verify the report outcome.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis decide that a report is stale by age alone?

Only if you define the age rule and the required timestamps are available. Otherwise, supply an explicit obsolete status or list.

What does the action do?

It aborts report generation or removes a previously generated quiz report. Review the request and its intended report before relying on the automation.
