Make new Canvas course images clearer

When a new image lands in a Canvas course, let DeepImage improve its resolution without adding another manual editing step.

Trigger

New Canvas File Upload

Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.

Action

Process Image Async

Tool to schedule an image enhancement job and wait for the result. Performs selected enhancement options on an image and returns the result URL if processing completes within 25 seconds; otherwise returns a job hash for later retrieval. Use when you need to enhance images with options like denoising, deblurring, lighting improvements, or background removal.

Why this helps

Course images can arrive at low resolution, leaving instructors to download, edit, and re-upload files by hand.

  • Improve image clarity as course files arrive.
  • Reduce manual downloading and re-uploading.
  • Keep a run report with the processing result.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and DeepImage once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to enhance each newly uploaded image and include the result in its run report.
  • 4Choose the New Canvas File Upload trigger for the course.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real image upload.

Questions about this workflow

Does this process every type of Canvas file?

Use the instruction to process image uploads only. The trigger detects new course file uploads, and Notis can assess the returned file data.

What happens if processing takes longer than 25 seconds?

DeepImage can return a job hash when processing is not complete within 25 seconds. The run report can include the available status and hash.
