Why this helps
Asset details are often separated from the submission that needs them, adding friction to review.
- Retrieves full details for a specified Cloudinary resource
- Makes asset information available alongside incoming work
- Supports a consistent review handoff when the asset ID is known

- 1Connect Canvas and Cloudinary once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create one.
- 3In one instruction, specify the Cloudinary asset ID to retrieve when a new submission arrives or how you will supply it.
- 4Pick the New Canvas Assignment Submission trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real submission and verify the intended resource is returned.
