Create a Crowdin review label when submissions arrive
When learners submit work, create a consistent Crowdin label for the strings your team wants to review.
Trigger
New Canvas Assignment Submission
Polls Canvas for new submissions to a specific assignment.
Action
Add Label
Tool to create a new label in a crowdin project. use when you need to tag resources with a custom identifier, such as 'sprint-5'.
Why this helps
Review labels are easy to forget when submission activity creates a separate stream of follow-up work.
- Prompt a consistent review label at submission time.
- Reduce the chance of unlabeled strings entering review.
- Keep label naming under your team's control.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Crowdin once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
- 3Ask Notis to create a Crowdin label using your specified naming rule when a new submission arrives; creating the label does not assign it to strings.
- 4Pick the New Canvas Assignment Submission trigger, then choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real submission event and confirm the label in the intended Crowdin project.
Questions about this workflow
Does this label the strings automatically?
No. The allowed action creates a label but does not assign it to strings. Assigning labels requires string IDs and a separate action.
Can the label include assignment details?
Only if those details are returned by Canvas. Supply a fallback label name for unavailable details.
