Why this helps
A promising discussion topic can lose momentum when creating a live follow-up requires a separate planning task.
- Create a room when a new discussion topic appears.
- Keep a live follow-up connected to the topic that prompted it.
- Reuse the room naming and scheduling guidance you provide.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and ClickMeeting once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Notis and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to create a live discussion room for each new topic, including your scheduling rule and room defaults.
- 4Choose the New Canvas Discussion Topic trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real discussion topic and check the created room.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow schedule a specific session time?
The trigger description only confirms a new topic. Include a timing rule in your instruction or arrange for Notis to request a time when the trigger does not provide one.
Does creating the room notify students?
No invitation action is included in this workflow. It creates the conference room; use a separate invitation step if you want attendees emailed.
