Turn a new course topic into a template review

A new discussion topic can point to a training need. See available proposal templates to help your team decide whether a client conversation is timely.

Trigger

New Canvas Discussion Topic

Polls a Canvas course for new discussion topics.

Action

Get All Templates

Tool to retrieve a paginated list of all templates. use when you need to list available templates for selection.

Why this helps

Potential training opportunities can be noticed in course activity but forgotten before anyone checks the tools available to respond.

  • Make available proposal templates easier to discover at a course signal.
  • Give the team a starting point for evaluating a potential client need.
  • Keep opportunity review lightweight and tied to real course activity.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Better Proposals once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3Ask Notis to retrieve available proposal templates when a new discussion topic is created and summarize options for human review.
  • 4Choose New Canvas Discussion Topic as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real discussion topic.

Questions about this workflow

Does this draft or send a proposal?

No. It retrieves templates and reports available options. Drafting or sending is not one of the listed actions.

Can a discussion topic alone prove there is a sales opportunity?

No. Treat the topic as a signal for review, not proof of buyer intent. Add any relevant context in your instruction.
