Keep campaign context beside the Canny feedback

When a campaign surfaces useful context for a known request, add it directly to the discussion instead of opening another thread.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Comment

Posts a new comment on a post.

Why this helps

Campaign observations can lose their value when they are separated from the Canny request they explain.

  • Preserve context on the existing feedback thread.
  • Avoid creating a duplicate post for related observations.
  • Use the supplied post and author identifiers for the comment.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AimTell and Canny once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, say to add the supplied campaign observation as a comment on its identified Canny post.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real payload containing the required postid, authorid, and comment text.

Questions about this workflow

What identifiers are needed?

The Canny comment action requires the postid and authorid, so include them in the webhook payload or otherwise provide them to Notis.

Will it find a matching post automatically?

Only if the workflow can identify one from the information available. Supply the post identifier when you need a comment on a specific post.
