Verify email addresses from Canvas submissions
Check submitted email addresses as they arrive, so follow-up starts with a more reliable contact.
Trigger
New Canvas Assignment Submission
Polls Canvas for new submissions to a specific assignment.
Action
Email Verification API
Tool to verify email addresses including syntax validation, domain existence, and email account verification. Use when you need to validate an email address before sending messages or storing contact information.
Why this helps
Copying contact details out of submissions creates extra work and leaves typos easy to miss.
- Catch malformed or undeliverable-looking email addresses early.
- Reduce manual checking before contact follow-up.
- Keep the review tied to the submission that supplied the address.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Addressfinder once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find an email included in each new submission and verify it with Addressfinder.
- 4Choose New Canvas Assignment Submission as the trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Test with one real submission that contains an email address.
Questions about this workflow
Does this find an email address if the submission has none?
No. The instruction can only use information present in the submission or context you provide.
Does verification send an email?
No. This action verifies an email address; it does not send a message.
