Use learner feedback to refresh credential groups
Learner feedback can reveal when credential program details need clarification. Notis can update an existing group when your instruction names the target and the change to make.
Trigger
New Canvas Discussion Message
Polls Canvas discussion topics for new messages.
Action
Update Group
Tool to update an existing group. use when you need to modify group details after fetching its current data.
Why this helps
Feedback about unclear credential details can stay buried in discussions while group information remains unchanged.
- Turn qualifying feedback into a concrete group maintenance step.
- Reduce repeated manual review of credential details.
- Keep edits grounded in a known group and explicit change.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Accredible certificates once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation defining qualifying feedback, the target group, and the exact changes to apply.
- 3Pick New Canvas Discussion Message as the trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real message and review the updated group.
Questions about this workflow
Will every message change group details?
No. Describe qualifying feedback and only request an update when the message supports a specific change.
What happens when no group can be identified?
The action needs an existing group. Have Notis report the missing target for review instead of guessing.
