Inspect Codemagic app details after a Canvas upload

Keep project configuration details close to the course activity that prompted a review.

Trigger

New Canvas File Upload

Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.

Action

Retrieve an Application

Tool to retrieve a single application by its unique identifier. Use when you need to get application details including name, branches, and workflow configuration.

Why this helps

Looking up an app's branches and workflow configuration separately adds another context switch to course review.

  • Retrieve configured app details after a new course upload.
  • Review available branches and workflow configuration in the run report.
  • Use a course event to prompt a focused project lookup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Codemagic once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, identify the Codemagic application to retrieve after the upload.
  • 4Pick New Canvas File Upload as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real course upload and check the application details in the report.

Questions about this workflow

Does this build the uploaded file?

No. This workflow retrieves a Codemagic application's details. The available action does not upload Canvas files or build them directly.

How does Notis know which app to retrieve?

Name the app or its unique identifier in your instruction. Do not rely on the Canvas upload to identify an app unless it includes a reliable reference you have specified.

Can I limit this to one course?

Select the relevant Canvas course when choosing the file upload trigger.
