Check available BigML correlations after a course file upload

A new course file can prompt a quick check of existing BigML correlations, helping you keep analysis resources in view.

Trigger

New Canvas File Upload

Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.

Action

List Correlations

Tool to list correlation resources. use when you need to browse or paginate existing correlations for the authenticated user.

Why this helps

New files often signal follow-up work, but checking available analysis resources requires a separate context switch.

  • Use a file event as a cue to inspect existing correlation resources.
  • Receive the returned list in a Notis run report.
  • Avoid assuming the uploaded file is automatically analyzed.

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, ask Notis to list BigML correlations and summarize the response after a new course file upload.
  • 4Pick New Canvas File Upload as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real file upload and review the report.

Questions about this workflow

Does this analyze the new file?

No. The listed action only lists correlations. The available actions do not include uploading a file or creating an analysis.

Can this tell me which correlation relates to the file?

Only if the file context and correlation data returned by the apps support that conclusion. The event descriptions do not guarantee it.
