Retrieve Validator Details When a Canvas Course Is Created

Let a new course serve as a prompt to review the Beaconchain validator details you follow, without adding another manual reminder.

Polls Canvas for newly created courses for a specific user.

Action

Get Validator

Why this helps

When a new course starts, operational tasks can get pushed aside by setup and planning work.

  • Prompt a validator lookup from a newly created course event.
  • Keep the validator identifier and requested review in one instruction.
  • Receive returned details in the automation 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 course is created for this user, retrieve information for my specified Beaconchain validator and summarize the returned details.
  • 4Choose the New Course Created for User trigger, then select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real course creation event and confirm the validator lookup uses your specified identifier.
