Keep engagement reviews tied to current evidence
Refresh your Airtable review list with the latest Blackboard course activity and a concise reason for attention.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Update multiple records
Updates multiple existing records in a specified airtable table; these updates are not performed atomically.
Why this helps
A risk list quickly goes stale when course activity changes but review records do not.
- Refresh existing review records
- Attach current activity evidence to each update
- Keep attention focused on changes that warrant review
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blackboard and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review available recent course activity and update matching Airtable records with evidence and a review date.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real course and confirm the matching records and updates.
Questions about this workflow
Does Blackboard provide a risk score?
No risk score is specified here. Ask Notis to apply criteria you provide, or to summarize available activity without inventing a score.
What if no Airtable record exists yet?
This workflow updates existing records. Use a separate create-record workflow for new course entries.
