Why this helps
Teams may keep discussing feedback in Canny after its supporting project details have changed elsewhere.
- Update an existing post when an incoming request identifies it.
- Summarize the relevant project change in the post details.
- Avoid rewriting the whole feedback record by hand.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AccuLynx and Canny once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation and tell Notis how to apply an AccuLynx project update to an existing Canny post.
- 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger and include the matching Canny post ID and the project details to use.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real project update and inspect the revised post.
Questions about this workflow
Can this workflow find a Canny post from a project name alone?
The available action updates a post by its details, but does not describe a search operation. Include the matching Canny post ID in the request or provide a reliable way for Notis to obtain it.
Does the workflow run directly on an AccuLynx event?
No AccuLynx trigger events are listed. An external tool or backend must send an HTTP request to the Notis webhook when the update should be processed.
