Find the right CommCare report after grading

When a graded result needs program review, have Notis check which CommCare reports are available before the team searches manually.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

List Reports

Tool to retrieve available reports configured in a CommCare project. Use when you need to discover what reports exist before downloading report data via the Download Report Data API.

Why this helps

Teams can lose time looking for the right reporting view after a learner reaches a meaningful milestone.

  • Reduce time spent locating configured reports
  • Surface reporting options at a relevant course milestone
  • Keep the follow-up prompt anchored to a real grading event

  • 3Tell Notis how to summarize the available report names for the team.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real grading event and confirm the report list is useful.
