Notis

Bring quiet Canvas follow-ups back into view

Choose a time threshold, and Notis can check for follow-ups that appear inactive and create a Clientary task to revisit them.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create Task

Tool to create a new task in Clientary. Use when you need to create a task with a title, optionally associating it with a project and assignee.

Why this helps

Open questions or submissions can go quiet without anyone noticing they still need attention.

  • Bring older open items back into view.
  • Use a consistent threshold for deciding what needs attention.
  • Keep follow-up work in Clientary where it can be prioritized.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Clientary once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Specify what counts as an open follow-up and how old it must be before a task is created.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one known older follow-up.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis know whether an item is still open?

Only if the relevant status or progress information is available from Canvas. Include a clear rule and verify it with a known item.

Will this create repeated tasks for the same item?

Ask Notis to check existing tasks before creating a new one and test the duplicate check against a real task.
