Give every new Canvas discussion topic a planned next step
A new topic is a chance to set the conversation up well. Start a Botbaba action with its details and the engagement approach you choose.
Trigger

Polls a Canvas course for new discussion topics.
Action
Execute Bot Action
Tool to execute a bot action or workflow. Use when triggering automated actions or workflows for a specific conversation.
Why this helps
New discussion topics can go live without a consistent welcome, prompt, or supporting action from the course team.
- Prompt a consistent topic launch action
- Keep topic context available for follow-up
- Reduce manual coordination after a topic is created
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Botbaba once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis which Botbaba action to start when a Canvas discussion topic is created and what topic details to use.
- 4Pick New Canvas Discussion Topic as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real new topic and check the action outcome.
Questions about this workflow
Can the action welcome participants or prompt engagement?
It can if the selected Botbaba action supports that outcome and your instruction explains what to do.
Can it identify who should receive the action?
The intended Botbaba user or audience must be identifiable from the event or specified through a reliable lookup in your instruction.
