Check Cults collections when a discussion topic starts

Start a new course conversation with relevant collection context ready for review.

Trigger

New Canvas Discussion Topic

Polls a Canvas course for new discussion topics.

Action

Cults GraphQL POST

Tool to execute a GraphQL operation against the Cults API. Use when you need to fetch or mutate data via the Cults GraphQL endpoint.

Why this helps

A new topic can be hard to support with examples when useful model collections are scattered across another app.

  • Bring existing collections into topic planning.
  • Make useful model groupings easier to rediscover.
  • Give the topic owner a concise review instead of another search task.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Cults once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a Notis automation with an instruction to find collections relevant to new topics.
  • 3Tell Notis to use available topic details to review Cults collections and report relevant matches.
  • 4Pick New Canvas Discussion Topic as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real topic and check that the collection matches are useful.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create or edit a Cults collection?

No. This workflow reviews collection information through the Cults GraphQL action and reports relevant matches.

What if no collection matches the topic?

Notis can report that it found no relevant match based on the available information.
