Keep a Box review note after Canvas grading
When Canvas reports a grade, add a concise note to a relevant Box file so follow-up context stays close to the document.
Trigger
Canvas Assignment Graded
Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.
Action
Create comment
Adds a comment by the user to a specific file, or as a reply to an other comment.
Why this helps
Grading decisions and document context can become separated, making later follow-up harder.
- Keep an available grading follow-up note with a Box file.
- Reduce repeated searching for the review context.
- Make next steps easier to spot.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Box once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation and describe the note you want added.
- 3Ask Notis to comment on the relevant Box file after a submission is graded, using only available grade and assignment context.
- 4Choose Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real graded submission.
Questions about this workflow
Will this post the grade into Box?
Only if the Canvas event provides the grade and your instruction asks Notis to include it. The action adds a comment to a Box file.
How does it identify the Box file?
Specify how to identify the file in your instruction. If the event and available context do not identify one, Notis cannot reliably add the comment.
