Check BigML connector details after a course file upload
A new course file may be a useful moment to check a configured BigML connector. Notis retrieves its details for your review.
Trigger
New Canvas File Upload
Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.
Action
Get External Connector
Tool to retrieve details of an external connector. use after creating or listing external connectors to inspect its state.
Why this helps
Checking whether a data connection is ready can get lost between course updates and machine learning setup.
- Use a file upload event as a cue to inspect a connector.
- Review the details returned by BigML in Notis.
- Keep the check informational without implying the file is imported.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and BigML once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, identify the BigML external connector to retrieve and ask Notis to summarize its returned details after a new course file upload.
- 4Pick New Canvas File Upload as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real course file upload and review the connector response.
Questions about this workflow
Does this send the uploaded Canvas file to BigML?
No. The listed BigML action retrieves an existing external connector. File transfer or dataset creation is not listed.
How does Notis know which connector to check?
Identify the connector in your plain-language instruction. The trigger description does not specify that a connector id is included in the event.
