Check your Daffy balance when work is submitted

A new submission can prompt a quick look at your giving capacity. Notis can retrieve your Daffy fund balance and report it to you.

Trigger

New Canvas Assignment Submission

Polls Canvas for new submissions to a specific assignment.

Action

Get Balance

Tool to retrieve the authenticated user's fund balance. use after authenticating to confirm account funds.

Why this helps

Planning a gift around course activity is harder when checking available funds requires a separate context switch.

  • See the authenticated fund balance as a timely prompt.
  • Keep planning separate from committing a gift.
  • Receive a run report without manually opening Daffy.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Daffy once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve your Daffy balance when a new submission arrives and report the result.
  • 4Pick New Canvas Assignment Submission as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real submission and review the run report.
