Review your network profiles when a course is created

When a course appears in Canvas, see the Control D profiles available to your account and decide which, if any, fits your needs.

Trigger

New Course Created for User

Polls Canvas for newly created courses for a specific user.

Action

Get Profiles

Tool to list all profiles associated with the authenticated account. Use when you need an overview of accessible profiles.

Why this helps

A new course can mean new access considerations, but keeping track of existing network profiles takes a separate lookup.

  • Prompt a profile inventory check when a course is created.
  • See available profiles before deciding on a setup.
  • Avoid creating or assigning profiles without review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Control D once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Ask Notis to list Control D profiles when a new course is created so you can review the available options.
  • 4Pick New Course Created for User as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real course creation event and review the returned profiles.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a Control D profile for the new course?

No. It lists existing profiles so you can decide what to do.

Can it identify the best profile automatically?

Only if you provide clear selection criteria and the event includes enough relevant course information. Otherwise, use the list for manual review.
