Make pending Canvas reviews easier to spot in ClickUp
A small visual cue can make a busy task list easier to scan. Have Notis add an existing ClickUp tag to the review task when a new Canvas submission arrives.
Trigger
New Canvas Assignment Submission
Polls Canvas for new submissions to a specific assignment.
Action
Add tag to task
Adds an existing tag to a specified task; team id is required if custom task ids is true.
Why this helps
Pending submission reviews can blend into a long ClickUp list without a consistent way to spot them.
- Spot submission-related work faster.
- Use an existing tag to keep task lists scannable.
- Reduce manual task triage.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and ClickUp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to add a specific existing ClickUp tag to the relevant review task when a new submission arrives.
- 4Pick the New Canvas Assignment Submission trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real submission and verify the tag was added to the intended task.

Does it create the review task?
No. This workflow tags a relevant existing task. Specify how Notis should identify it, or create the task separately.
Can one tag be used across several courses?
Yes, if the tag is available in the task's ClickUp space and your instruction identifies which tasks should receive it.
