Create a BigML project when a Canvas course is created
A new course can be the start of a new analysis effort. Ask Notis to create a BigML project and report the result when Canvas creates the course.
Trigger
New Course Created for User
Polls Canvas for newly created courses for a specific user.
Action
Create Project
Tool to create a new project. use when you need to group related bigml resources into a project.
Why this helps
Setting up a separate project for each new course is easy to forget when course creation kicks off other work.
- Start a related BigML project from a course creation event.
- Reduce manual setup and tool switching.
- Get a run report with the project creation result.
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 create a BigML project for a newly created course and describe what project details to use if the event provides them.
- 4Pick New Course Created for User as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real course creation and verify the result in BigML.
Questions about this workflow
Will the course name automatically become the BigML project name?
Only if the event provides that information to the automation and your instruction asks Notis to use it. The trigger description does not specify its full payload.
Does this create datasets or train models too?
No. The available action creates a project only. Dataset creation and model training are not among the listed actions.
