Notis

Move browser findings into the right Canvas conversation

Give Notis a clear recipient and purpose, then turn an Airtop result into a focused Canvas message for follow-up.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create conversation

Sends messages by starting a Canvas conversation or adding to an existing one.

Why this helps

A time-sensitive finding can be missed when it stays in a browser session instead of reaching the people who need it.

  • Send relevant findings to specified Canvas recipients.
  • Include a concise summary and a clear follow-up request.
  • Keep course communication in Canvas.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtop and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to send a concise Canvas conversation about qualifying Airtop findings to specified recipients.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real finding and confirm the conversation recipients and message in Canvas.

Questions about this workflow

Can the action reuse an existing conversation?

Yes. The action may reuse a conversation with matching recipients and scope unless configured to force a new one.

Who receives the message?

Specify the recipients in the instruction or ensure the Airtop result provides enough context to identify them.
