Notis

Keep Apollo accounts in sync with Canvas pilot launches

A new pilot course is a meaningful customer milestone. Have Notis carry that context into Apollo so your team can follow up without switching systems.

Trigger

New Course Created for User

Polls Canvas for newly created courses for a specific user.

Action

Update an Apollo account

Updates specified attributes of an existing account in apollo.io.

Why this helps

Pilot launches can be easy to miss when course setup happens in Canvas and account planning happens in Apollo.

  • Record pilot launch context on the matching Apollo account.
  • Reduce manual updates across Canvas and Apollo.
  • Help the team follow up with the right customer context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Apollo once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the matching customer account and record the pilot launch context in Apollo.
  • 4Choose New Course Created for User as the trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real pilot course and review the update.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow create an Apollo account if there is no match?

No. It updates a matching existing account. Ask Notis to report unmatched courses for review.

Can it identify which courses are pilots?

Tell Notis how to recognize a pilot course in its name or available course details. If that context is not available, supply it in the instruction.
