Notis

Refresh course readings with scheduled research

Have Notis revisit selected sites and assemble relevant reading links into a Canvas course page for your next unit.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create a page for a course

Creates a wiki page in a Canvas course.

Why this helps

Reading lists become stale when nobody has time to revisit sources and organize the useful updates.

  • Revisit sources without starting from scratch
  • Organize useful links by topic
  • Give students brief context for each reading

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgentQL and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis what reading material to collect.
  • 3In one instruction, name the course topic, sources to revisit, and what belongs on the page.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real run and review the page in Canvas.

Questions about this workflow

Can the page focus on one unit?

Yes. Name the unit and intended student audience in your instruction.

Can I control the sources?
