Inspect a BigML project when a new Canvas course starts
A new course is a useful moment to check an existing BigML project's details. Notis can retrieve the metadata you want to review.
Trigger
New Course Created for User
Polls Canvas for newly created courses for a specific user.
Action
Get Project
Tool to retrieve details of a project by id. use when you need to inspect project metadata before analysis.
Why this helps
Project context can be overlooked while setting up a new course across multiple tools.
- Retrieve project metadata as part of course setup.
- See the response in a Notis report.
- Use a specified project reference rather than assuming course data maps to a project.
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 a BigML project and ask Notis to summarize its metadata when a new course is created.
- 4Pick New Course Created for User as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real course creation and verify the response.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis automatically select a project based on the course?
The event description does not specify a project reference or matching data. Name the project in your instruction or confirm the event provides a supported reference.
Does this create a new project?
No. This workflow retrieves details for an existing project. Use a project creation action if you need to create one.
