Action

List Team Members

Why this helps

Starting a course can require operational coordination, but finding who handles inventory means leaving the course setup flow.

  • See Boxhero team members and roles when a course is created.
  • Reduce the effort of finding an inventory contact.
  • Get a report that supports a clear human follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Boxhero once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list Boxhero team members and roles and summarize likely operational contacts when a course is created.
  • 4Pick New Course Created for User as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real course creation event and check the reported team details.

Questions about this workflow

Does this assign Boxhero roles?

No. The available action lists members and their roles; it does not change permissions or assignments.

Can it know which course needs an inventory contact?

Include your selection rules in the instruction. If the event does not provide enough course context, name the missing detail.
