Bring retention into course review follow-up

When a course review wraps up, automatically request the island retention metric that informs the next decision.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Island Retention

Tool to retrieve day-over-day retention metrics for a Fortnite island. Use when analyzing retention performance by day (only supported for day interval).

Why this helps

Review notes can capture what to investigate, but the follow-up analytics check can still get forgotten.

  • Start a retention query from an existing review signal.
  • Reduce manual follow-up after planning discussions.
  • Keep the metric request attached to the island being reviewed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Blackboard and Epic games to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation prompt asking for day-interval retention for the course island after a review signal.
  • 3Choose an incoming webhook trigger and report channel, then test with a review event and island code.

Questions about this workflow

Can retention be requested hourly?

The action supports the day interval only.

Does Blackboard send a review webhook by itself?

No. Your custom backend or external tool must send the incoming webhook to Notis.
