Keep grading context with the right Attio record

When a submission is graded, capture the useful context on the matching relationship record in Attio.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Create Note

This tool creates a new note on a given record in attio. the note can be attached to any record type (like person, company, or deal) and includes a title and content. it requires parameters such as parent object, parent record id, title, and content, with an optional created at timestamp.

Why this helps

Grading information can be hard to find later when it stays separate from the contact history.

  • Keep grading context alongside the matched relationship record.
  • Avoid manually rewriting submission details as notes.
  • Surface missing identity matches in run reports for follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Attio once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find the matching Attio record and add a factual note about the newly graded submission; report when no reliable match exists.
  • 4Choose the Canvas Assignment Graded trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and verify the note is attached to the intended record.

Questions about this workflow

Will the note be added if no matching Attio record is found?

The instruction should tell Notis to report an unmatched identity instead of attaching the note to an uncertain record.

Does this include a grade history?

The trigger is described as polling for newly graded submissions. It does not establish a complete historical grade record.
