Organize curriculum categories ahead of question writing
Give Notis the curriculum category names and parent IDs, then include category creation in your recurring exam planning.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a new question category
Creates a new question category.
Why this helps
When the question bank structure lags behind a curriculum, question authors spend time deciding where content belongs.
- Keep question bank structure aligned with planning
- Reduce category decisions during question writing
- Make parent ID requirements explicit
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Classmarker once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Provide the planned category names and confirmed parent category IDs in your instruction.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real category plan.
Questions about this workflow
Does this infer the curriculum structure from an Affinda document?
The action creates a category when given its name and parent ID. Supply those details or the planned structure in your instruction.
What if a parent category does not exist?
Have Notis report the missing parent requirement so you can confirm the correct category before creation.
