Close a Canvas semester with your archived goals in view

At the end of a course stretch, bring past goal information into your reflection on what is next.

Trigger

Action

Why this helps

Course transitions can feel rushed, leaving little space to review what happened alongside personal goals.

  • Trigger a retrospective when you reach your chosen semester-wrap moment.
  • Retrieve archived goals for reflection without searching manually.
  • Bring goal history into a course transition routine.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Beeminder once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis to retrieve archived goals when you request a Canvas semester wrap review.
  • 3Pick a Notis webhook trigger and connect your wrap-up entry point to send an HTTP request.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports, then test with one real request.

Questions about this workflow

Does it retrieve Canvas grades or course outcomes?

No. The supported Beeminder action retrieves archived goals; Canvas data is not returned by this action.

Can I trigger the review manually?

Yes. Send an HTTP request to the webhook when you are ready to start the wrap-up.
