Send an existing credential for milestone work
Define which submissions qualify for a milestone, then let Notis send the corresponding published credential through Certifier.
Trigger
New Canvas Assignment Submission
Polls Canvas for new submissions to a specific assignment.
Action
Send a Credential
Tool to send a published credential via email. use after confirming the credential is published.
Why this helps
An already prepared credential still needs timely delivery to each eligible learner.
- Send a published credential after qualifying work is submitted.
- Use explicit criteria to avoid sending for every submission.
- Reduce manual delivery follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Certifier once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe the qualifying milestone, published credential, and recipient in one instruction.
- 4Pick New Canvas Assignment Submission as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real submission, confirming the credential is published and recipient details are ready.
Questions about this workflow
Does a submission mean the learner has passed?
No. Define what the submission proves for your milestone. A submission event alone does not confirm a grade or quality.
Does the credential have to be published first?
Yes. The send credential action is for a published credential.
What if the right recipient is unclear?
Provide the recipient details or have the instruction report the missing information for follow-up rather than attempting delivery.
