Apply a researched date adjustment to an assignment
When a verified date constraint affects a defined group, research the source and create the corresponding Canvas assignment override.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create assignment override
Creates an assignment override to adjust dates for selected students, a group, or a course section.
Why this helps
A confirmed schedule change can require careful date checking and a targeted deadline update in Canvas.
- Check the date context before acting
- Apply an override to a specified target
- Reduce manual deadline administration
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AgentQL and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis what date change to handle.
- 3In one instruction, provide the source URL, course and assignment ids, target student, group, or section, and requested dates.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real, authorized date change and verify the override in Canvas.
Questions about this workflow
What information is needed for an override?
The action requires an assignment and at least one target: student ids, a group id, or a course section id. A student-targeted override also requires a title.
Can AgentQL decide who receives the override?
Provide the intended target explicitly. Do not rely on web research to infer student or group membership.
