Create exam section categories from a request
Send a category request to Notis with its name and parent ID, then let it create the Classmarker structure.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a new question category
Creates a new question category.
Why this helps
Small structure changes can derail exam prep when they require a manual context switch into the question bank.
- Handle category requests without switching into Classmarker
- Use a defined parent category
- Get a run report for incomplete requests
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.
- 3In one instruction, state which request details provide the category name and parent category ID.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real category request.
Questions about this workflow
What does the incoming webhook need to contain?
It needs enough context for Notis to identify the requested category name and confirmed parent category ID.
Can this create a parent category?
The listed action creates a new question category and requires a parent ID. Use an existing confirmed parent category.
