Turn qualifying Canvas card requests into Brex cards
If a Canvas discussion is where your team submits requests, Notis can act on qualifying card requests and report anything that needs review.
Trigger
New Canvas Discussion Message
Polls Canvas discussion topics for new messages.
Action
Create Card
Create a new card and assign it to a user.
Why this helps
Card requests posted in a discussion can get buried among replies and require a separate follow-up before they reach Brex.
- Watch a specific Canvas discussion for new requests.
- Apply request requirements and criteria you provide.
- Get a report when information is incomplete or a request needs review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Brex once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe qualifying requests, required details, and when to report instead of creating a card.
- 3Pick New Canvas Discussion Message as the trigger.
- 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real request.
Questions about this workflow
Will every new discussion message create a card?
Your instruction should require clear card request details and qualifying criteria. Test with a real request and specify how to handle incomplete or ambiguous messages.
What card controls should I include?
State the required user, spending limits, and any controls your Brex process requires. Do not rely on the message trigger to provide missing policy.
