Enroll a Canvas participant from an approved AI request
Give Notis the course, user, role, and enrollment status from an approved enrollment request.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create enrollment
Enrolls a user in a Canvas course with a chosen role and status.
Why this helps
Enrollment follow-up can be delayed when the course, user, and role details are spread across a request thread.
- Reduce repeated entry for approved enrollment requests.
- Keep user, course, role, and status together.
- Catch missing observer association details before proceeding.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ai ml api and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to enroll only approved requests using the specified course, user, role, and status, and require an associated user id for observer enrollments.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one authorized enrollment request and verify the enrollment in Canvas.
