Why this helps

Course materials may be organized differently across learning and bot tools, making content reviews harder to coordinate.

  • List Botpress file tags after a Canvas course upload.
  • Make content organization easier to review across tools.
  • Receive tag metadata without opening Botpress manually.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Botpress once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list Botpress file tags and summarize the available metadata for your content review.
  • 4Choose New Canvas File Upload as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real course file upload.

Will the tags be matched to the uploaded file?
