- Prepare for course reviews with the comments in one summary.
- Notice open discussion that may need a response.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blackboard and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe it to Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, identify the Drive file and ask Notis to list and summarize its comments.
- 4Choose the notis_cron trigger, set its schedule, and select where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real file and check that the summary reflects its listed comments.
Questions about this workflow
Can this include replies too?

Will it reply to comments?
