Put credential sessions on the Canvas calendar

Turn a supplied credential session request into a Canvas calendar event where learners can find it alongside course work.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Calendar Event

Creates a calendar event, optionally as a recurring series.

Why this helps

A live credential session can be missed when it is shared in a message but never added to the course calendar.

  • Put credential sessions in the course calendar.
  • Use the time and context supplied with the request.
  • Reduce missed sessions and manual calendar entry.

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 credential session request should create a Canvas calendar event using supplied context and timing.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real session request and verify its time and course context.

Questions about this workflow

Can this create recurring events?

The action supports finite recurrence rules. Include a valid finite recurrence rule only when needed.

What details must the request provide?
