Check Node Health After a Canvas Course File Upload
Pair a new course file with a quick check of whether your Beaconchain node is ready, syncing, or in an error state.
Trigger
New Canvas File Upload
Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.
Action
Get Node Health
Tool to get the health status of the node. use when you need to check if the node is ready, syncing, or in an error state.
Why this helps
Course files can arrive throughout the day, making it harder to remember separate operational checks.
- Run a node health check when a course file is uploaded.
- See the returned node readiness, sync, or error state.
- Place the operational result in a Notis run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Beaconchain once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis: When a new file is uploaded to this course, check Beaconchain node health and summarize the returned status.
- 4Choose the New Canvas File Upload trigger, then select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real course file upload and review the node status in the report.
