Ways Notis can move work from Canvas to Contentful graphql
Log graded Canvas work in Contentful
When Canvas grades a submission, query Contentful for the matching review record and summarize the result for the founder.
Authorize a Contentful lookup for new Canvas submissions
When a new Canvas submission arrives, retrieve a valid Contentful management token before the assistant prepares a follow-up lookup.
Pull Contentful context for new Canvas submissions
When students submit work, query Contentful for the related brief, rubric notes, or course context and return a concise review packet.
Check Contentful FAQs after a Canvas discussion message
When a new Canvas discussion message arrives, query Contentful for related help content and highlight gaps or reusable answers.
Run a persisted Contentful query for new discussion topics
When Canvas creates a discussion topic, run a persisted Contentful query to retrieve the approved content set for that subject.
Build a Contentful course kit for a new Canvas course
When a new Canvas course is created, query Contentful for matching reusable content and return a launch checklist.
Index new Canvas files against Contentful content
When a file is uploaded to Canvas, query Contentful for related entries and report duplicate or supporting material.
Prepare Contentful authorization for a Canvas escalation
Start from a Notis webhook when an external review needs Canvas context, then retrieve a Contentful CMA token for authorized follow-up.
Audit course content with a daily persisted query
Run a daily persisted Contentful query to review course content signals supplied by your Canvas process and report exceptions.
Supported Triggers and Actions

Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”
