Trigger

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

Why this helps
Question drafts often sit outside the quiz, creating another manual step before an assessment is ready.
- Move a prepared question into an existing quiz.
- Keep answer structure aligned with the stated question type.
- Use an existing quiz group only when its id is valid.

- 3Tell Notis to add each reviewed question to the named existing Canvas quiz, preserving its question type and aligned answer structure.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one reviewed question and verify its type and answers in Canvas.
