Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Start Agent Job

Why this helps

A graded submission can call for checking sources, but starting a separate research job is easy to put off.

  • Starts a configured agent job after a grading event
  • Reduces manual handoffs between Canvas and Agenty
  • Keeps the research task close to the grading workflow

  • 1Connect Canvas and Agenty once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to start a specified Agenty agent job when a submission is graded, using the assignment context where available.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and confirm the Agenty job starts.
