Why this helps
Campaign feedback can be hard to use in class when it arrives without a ready-made learning question.
- Turn supplied feedback into a focused discussion topic.
- Give learners a reasoned question to explore together.
- Move quickly from insight to a structured course conversation.

- 1Connect ActiveTrail and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create a discussion topic from the supplied campaign insight and frame a course-relevant question.
- 4Pick a webhook as the trigger.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real example.
