Trigger

Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.

Action

Capture Screenshot

Tool to capture a webpage screenshot. Use when you need a visual snapshot of a URL or HTML with optional viewport and clipping.

Why this helps

A new file can arrive without the surrounding web context, leaving you to hunt for the page that explains it.

  • Provides a visual snapshot of a reachable URL when the event includes one.
  • Keeps the page view associated with new upload activity.
  • Cuts down on manual browser checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Cloudflare browser rendering once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to capture a screenshot of a related external webpage URL when that URL is present in a new file upload event.
  • 4Pick New Canvas File Upload as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real upload event that includes a reachable webpage URL.

Questions about this workflow

Will it screenshot the uploaded file?

The screenshot action captures a webpage URL. It does not render an uploaded file unless the event provides a reachable webpage URL for it.

What if the event has no webpage URL?

There is no webpage for this action to capture, and the run can report that the URL was unavailable.
