Action

Get Webpage Content

Tool to retrieve rendered content of a webpage in html or markdown format. use when you need to fetch a page’s full content, optionally within an existing browser session.

Why this helps

Grading updates can interrupt other work, and reopening the right course context takes time.

  • Reduce tab switching after a grading update.
  • Keep review context close to the relevant course work.
  • Use a real Canvas event to start the review workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Anchor browser once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the graded submission details to retrieve the relevant webpage in Anchor for review.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow change a grade?

No. The selected Anchor action retrieves rendered webpage content; it does not change Canvas grades.

Can I specify which page Anchor should retrieve?

Describe the intended page and review context in the automation instruction. Notis uses prompts rather than field mappings.
