Get a course welcome message ready at creation

Trigger

New Course Created for User

Polls Canvas for newly created courses for a specific user.

Action

Create or Update Email Template

This tool creates a new email template or updates an existing one in brevo. if a 'templateid' is provided, it performs an update; otherwise, it creates a new template.

Why this helps

Setting up a course brings many small launch tasks, and writing a welcome email can slip down the list.

  • Create a repeatable course launch communication step.
  • Use available course details to make a welcome template specific.
  • Reduce the effort of drafting a first message for each course.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Brevo once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe in one instruction the welcome template to create or update using available course details.
  • 4Pick New Course Created for User as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real course creation and review the template.

Questions about this workflow

Will learners receive the welcome message automatically?

No. The available action prepares an email template. Sending requires a separate supported process.

Can Notis include details that Canvas does not provide?

Supply any extra audience or course information in your instruction. Notis can only use available event data and context you provide.
