Action
Create Project
Tool to create a new basin project. use when you need a new organizational container for forms. example: "create a project named marketing leads."
Why this helps
Course materials can prompt follow-up work, but the related forms often have no consistent organizing place.
- Create an organizing project when new course material is uploaded.
- Give related Basin forms a consistent home.
- Make it easier to prepare feedback or request forms around course materials.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Basin once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis in plain language.
- 3Ask Notis to create a Basin project for the course when a new file is uploaded, naming the project from available course context.
- 4Pick New Canvas File Upload as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real file upload.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a project for each uploaded file?
The automation runs for each new upload. State whether you want a project per upload or one shared course project, and include a naming rule.
Does the project contain the uploaded file?
No. The action creates a Basin project. The workflow does not claim to transfer or store Canvas files in Basin.
