Ways Notis can move work from Canvas to Apollo
Reflect Canvas Pilot Launches in Apollo
When a Canvas course is created for a known customer pilot, update its Apollo account with the pilot status and course context.
Turn Canvas Course Topics into Apollo Follow-ups
When a new topic appears in a monitored Canvas course, create an Apollo task for the matching institutional contact to review it.
Carry Canvas Feedback into Apollo Contacts
When a new Canvas discussion message contains customer feedback from a known institutional contact, update that Apollo contact with a concise note.
Create Apollo Tasks for Important Canvas Uploads
When a monitored Canvas course receives an important file, create an Apollo task for the matching customer contact to review it.
Advance Apollo Contacts After Canvas Milestones
When a monitored pilot assignment is graded, update the matching institutional contact's Apollo stage when the result meets your defined milestone.
Add Qualified Education Inquiries to Apollo
When your website sends a qualified institutional inquiry to a Notis webhook, create an Apollo contact using the supplied business contact details.
Enrich Education Prospects from Inquiry Details
When an inquiry webhook provides a business email or other supported identifier, enrich the prospect with Apollo data for review.
Review Overdue Education Prospect Tasks
On a recurring schedule, find overdue Apollo tasks tied to education prospects and send a concise run report for follow-up.
Move Stale Education Prospects to a Review Stage
On a recurring schedule, find education prospect contacts that meet your defined stale criteria and move them to a chosen review stage.
Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Canvas to Apollo. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Canvas triggers
Apollo actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add Contacts to Sequence
Adds contacts to a specified apollo email sequence by initiating an asynchronous background job and returning its details.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Bulk organization enrichment
Enriches data for up to 10 organizations simultaneously by providing a list of their base company domains (e.g., 'apollo.io', not 'www.apollo.io').
Canvas Assignment Graded
Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.
Bulk people enrichment
Use to enrich multiple person profiles simultaneously with comprehensive data from apollo's database.
New Canvas Assignment Submission
Polls Canvas for new submissions to a specific assignment.
Bulk update account stage
Bulk updates the stage for specified existing apollo.io accounts, moving them to a valid new account stage.
New Canvas Discussion Message
Polls Canvas discussion topics for new messages.
Create an Apollo account
Creates a new account in apollo.io; a new record is created even if a similar account exists, and provided `owner id` or `account stage id` must be valid existing ids.
New Canvas Discussion Topic
Polls a Canvas course for new discussion topics.
Create Apollo contact
Creates a new contact in apollo.io; use `account id` to link to an organization and `contact stage id` for sales stage, noting that apollo does not perform automatic deduplication.
New Course Created for User
Polls Canvas for newly created courses for a specific user.
Create Apollo deal
Creates a new sales opportunity (deal) in apollo.io; all provided ids (`owner id`, `account id`, `opportunity stage id`) must be valid existing apollo identifiers.
New Canvas File Upload

Create Apollo Task
Creates a distinct apollo.io task for each contact id in contact ids, assigning them to user id; this action is not for free plan users and repeated calls create duplicate tasks.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”
