Notis

Carry customer priorities into Canny votes

Record a customer's stated priority on the matching feedback post without re-entering the vote by hand.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Vote

Records a vote for a post.

Why this helps

Customer priorities in a database can be invisible in Canny if nobody transfers the vote.

  • Keep a customer's stated support for an idea alongside the post.
  • Reduce manual transfer of recorded votes.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Canny once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe that Notis should create a vote for the supplied user on the supplied Canny post when the record explicitly represents a vote.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Send one real vote record and verify it on the intended Canny post.

Questions about this workflow

What should the record include?

Include the Canny post identifier and voter identifier, plus any supported priority or original creation time if relevant.

Will it infer a vote from a general customer note?

It should only create a vote when the submitted record clearly documents that the customer voted or asked to have the vote recorded.
