Keep up with audio discussion posts

Trigger

Polls Canvas discussion topics for new messages.

Action

Analyze Audio

Tool to analyze audio input for transcription. use when you need to convert an audio url or base64 string to text.

Why this helps

Audio in a busy discussion can pile up and make it difficult to find or revisit a specific contribution.

  • Review spoken contributions in text form.
  • Search and revisit discussion points more easily.
  • Reduce the need to stop and play each audio clip.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Astica ai once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and ask Notis to transcribe audio sources in new discussion messages.
  • 3Pick the New Canvas Discussion Message trigger.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real discussion message that contains an audio URL or base64 input.

Questions about this workflow

What if a discussion message has no audio?

The transcription action needs an audio URL or base64 input. Messages without a confirmed audio source cannot be transcribed by this action.

Will it post the transcript back to the discussion?

No. The available Astica ai action transcribes audio; it does not post a reply in Canvas.
