Turn a graded Canvas submission into a next step

A grade can prompt a follow-up beyond grading itself. Tell Notis what outcome matters, and keep the next step in Close.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Create Task

This tool creates a new task in close.com. tasks are used to track to-do items and can be associated with leads. the tool will create a task with the specified parameters using the provided text, due date, and is complete flags.

Why this helps

Once grading is complete, related program or customer follow-up can be overlooked while attention moves to the next task.

  • Create a task when a grading event calls for further action.
  • Keep the follow-up visible alongside other Close work.
  • Describe the criteria and next step in plain language.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Close once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the follow-up.
  • 3Tell Notis which newly graded submissions warrant a Close task and what that task should say.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real grading event and review the task in Close.

Questions about this workflow

Can I create tasks only for certain grades?

Describe the criteria in your instruction, but confirm the event provides the grade information you need during a real-example test. If it does not, provide the rule another way or use a broader follow-up instruction.

Does this replace grading in Canvas?

No. Canvas remains the source of the grading event; this workflow creates a Close task for any additional follow-up you describe.
