Notis

Keep course reference material current

Give a recurring research review a useful destination in Canvas, where learners can find the latest collected information.

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

Course reference pages become stale when new research lives in separate tools.

  • Bring available new findings into course reference material.
  • Keep relevant source links beside the summary.
  • Reduce manual maintenance of course pages.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agenty and Canvas once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation that prepares an updated reference page from available Agenty findings.
  • 3Pick a recurring Notis schedule for the trigger.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real research result and review the page update and publication setting.

Questions about this workflow

Will this always update an existing page?

The action creates a page. If you need to update an existing page, this action does not provide that operation; use it to prepare a new page when appropriate.

How does it know what is new?

Provide a baseline or processed-result history if that information is not included in the Agenty results.
