Make post-grading follow-up easier to prepare

Bring a known CMS reference into the follow-up moment after a submission is graded.

Trigger

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Get Content Item

Tool to fetch details of a content item by content id. use when you need item fields and metadata from agility cms.

Why this helps

After grading, instructors often need to find a relevant reference separately before sending useful next steps.

  • Retrieves a specified CMS item for follow-up context.
  • Prepares a concise note that can be reviewed before sharing.
  • Leaves the recorded grade unchanged.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Agility CMS once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to retrieve a named Agility content item and prepare a relevant follow-up reference when an assignment is graded, without changing the grade.
  • 4Pick the Canvas Assignment Graded trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and confirm the item identifier or lookup rule is usable.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow send feedback to the student?

No. It prepares a report for the selected channel. The listed actions do not send Canvas messages or update grades.

What item does it retrieve?

Specify the Agility CMS content ID or a clear retrieval rule in your instruction. The action fetches an item by content ID.
