Prepare course feedback for DataRobot analysis

Make feedback easier to analyze by starting dataset preparation when new discussion messages appear.

Trigger

New Canvas Discussion Message

Polls Canvas discussion topics for new messages.

Action

Create Dataset from File

Tool to create a DataRobot dataset by uploading a file (CSV, Excel, etc.). Use when you need to upload data files to DataRobot's global catalog for modeling or prediction. Dataset creation is asynchronous - poll the statusId to monitor completion.

Why this helps

Qualitative feedback can accumulate in discussions without a consistent path into analysis.

  • Start feedback analysis preparation sooner
  • Reduce manual export and dataset setup
  • Support structured review of discussion themes

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and DataRobot once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Ask Notis to use an authorized export of relevant discussion messages to create a DataRobot dataset, and report when no export is accessible.
  • 4Pick New Canvas Discussion Message as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real message and an authorized export.

Questions about this workflow

Does one message provide a complete dataset?

No. A meaningful dataset may require an export containing multiple messages. The trigger only signals a new message.

Can sensitive details be removed before dataset creation?

Ask Notis to exclude or de-identify sensitive details, and ensure your export and processing are authorized.
