Make learner progress easier to segment

Describe which grade outcomes deserve a tag, and Notis can apply that tag to the matching ActiveCampaign contact after grading.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Manage contact tag

Manage tags for a contact in activecampaign. this action allows adding or removing tags from a contact. the action can be performed using either the contact's id or email address.

Why this helps

Teams may need to segment learners by progress, but manually checking grades and updating CRM tags creates another repetitive handoff.

  • Make selected progress states easier to find.
  • Keep CRM segments aligned with grading activity.
  • Avoid repeated manual tag updates.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and ActiveCampaign once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, define the grade criteria and the ActiveCampaign tag to add or remove for the matching learner.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and confirm the tag change.

Questions about this workflow

Can this calculate a grade trend?

The trigger reports newly graded submissions, not a complete grade history or baseline. Supply any needed historical comparison in your instruction or choose criteria based on the returned grade.

Can it remove a tag as well as add one?

The Manage contact tag action supports adding or removing tags. State the intended operation clearly.
