Action

Get Consensus Ratings

Tool to get consensus analyst ratings and price targets for a specified ticker over a date range. use when you need to gauge analyst sentiment and target price consensus for investment decisions.

Why this helps

Instructors who revisit market analysis after grading may need to reconstruct the analyst sentiment context themselves.

  • Make post-assignment review more efficient.
  • Keep the relevant date range explicit in the automation prompt.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Benzinga once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve Benzinga consensus ratings and price targets for the ticker identified in the assignment context and the date range you specify.
  • 4Choose Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission tied to a known ticker.
