Route certificate exceptions or coordination needs to the right Canvas recipients in a conversation with the relevant context.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create conversation
Sends messages by starting a Canvas conversation or adding to an existing one.
Why this helps
Credential exceptions can stall when the right course people never see the follow-up or have to hunt down the context.
- Keep coordination in a Canvas conversation.
- Include the context and recipients supplied in the request.
- Reduce forgotten follow-up on certificate exceptions.
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 that a request marked for course-team follow-up should create a Canvas conversation for its specified recipients.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real request and valid Canvas recipients.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow choose recipients automatically?
No. The request or instruction must identify valid Canvas recipients. Notis should not guess who should receive a sensitive update.
What information should the message include?
Include only the certificate context and follow-up details needed by the recipients.
