Review Appveyor build artifacts after Canvas grading

Bring a completed build's artifacts into view when grading an assignment signals that it's time to review the work.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Get Build Artifacts

Tool to get the list of artifacts for a specific build job. use when you need to retrieve artifacts after a job completes.

Why this helps

Build outputs and course reviews live in separate places, making it easy to miss the artifacts relevant to a graded submission.

  • Retrieve artifact listings when a submission is graded.
  • Keep the review prompt tied to the specific assignment and build you identify.
  • Reduce the need to switch between Canvas and Appveyor to begin a review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Appveyor once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis which Appveyor build to inspect and how to summarize its artifacts in the context of a newly graded assignment.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and its corresponding Appveyor build.

Questions about this workflow

Does this start or change an Appveyor build?

No. The available action retrieves the artifact list for a specific build job; it does not start or modify a build.

How does Notis know which build to inspect?

Include how to identify the relevant build in your instruction. If the Canvas event does not provide that information, supply it in the prompt or your process.
