Notis

Bring relevant web dates into the course calendar

Put dates discovered on monitored websites where learners already check their course schedule.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Calendar Event

Creates a calendar event, optionally as a recurring series.

Why this helps

Dates posted on external sites can be overlooked when learners rely on the course calendar.

  • Put externally announced dates in the course calendar.
  • Carry over the event details reported by Agenty.
  • Reduce manual checking and calendar entry.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agenty and Canvas once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation that extracts the event date and description from Agenty's result.
  • 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger used by your Agenty workflow.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real dated event and verify its Canvas calendar details.

Questions about this workflow

What if the page does not include a clear date?

Have the automation skip the event or request review when the Agenty result lacks a reliable date. Do not assume missing dates.

Can this create recurring events?

The Canvas action supports finite recurrence options. Describe the intended schedule only when Agenty or your instruction supplies it.
