Keep every graded Canvas submission visible in Airtable

Capture newly graded work in Airtable so feedback and follow-up do not disappear in the Canvas gradebook.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Create a record

Creates a new record in a specified airtable table; field values must conform to the table's column types.

Why this helps

Grades arrive in Canvas, but instructors still have to remember which learners need a comment, check-in, or next step.

  • Keep a searchable record of newly graded submissions.
  • Give instructors one place to review work that may need follow-up.
  • Reduce repeated checks of Canvas gradebook pages.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations > New Automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create an Airtable record for each newly graded submission, including available assignment, learner, grade, and feedback details.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and review the Airtable record.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow detect every grade change?

It runs when the Canvas Assignment Graded event polls and finds a newly graded submission for the specific assignment selected for the trigger.

Can Notis include the feedback comment?

Ask Notis to include available feedback details. The workflow can only use information returned by Canvas for that graded submission.
