Action
Get Users
Tool to retrieve all users in the account. use when you need to list all team users in your appveyor account.
Why this helps
Course setup and CI team coordination happen in different tools, so finding the right people can become a separate follow-up task.
- Retrieve Appveyor account users when a course is created for the selected user.
- Summarize team contacts against course context supplied to Notis.
- Make course-related CI coordination easier to start.
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, ask Notis to retrieve Appveyor users and prepare a team reference using course or project context you provide.
- 4Pick New Course Created for User as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real course creation and confirm the supplied team context is sufficient.
Questions about this workflow
Can this identify course collaborators from Appveyor data alone?
No. The action lists Appveyor account users, not Canvas course collaborators. Supply the relationship or project context you want Notis to use.
Does it invite users to a project?
No. It retrieves the account user list and prepares a reference; it does not invite or assign users.
