Ask for feedback after learners share course files

A new upload can be a useful moment to ask about the course experience and keep feedback connected to real activity.

Trigger

New Canvas File Upload

Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.

Action

Create or Update Person

Tool to create or update a person and schedule a survey email. Use when you need to add a new person to Delighted, update existing person details, or schedule a survey with custom properties for segmentation.

Why this helps

Following up on learner contributions often gets delayed because upload activity and survey outreach happen in separate tools.

  • Use course upload activity as a feedback cue.
  • Create or update a Delighted person from available details.
  • Schedule a contextual survey email.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Delighted once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
  • 3Describe: when a course file is uploaded, identify the uploader and schedule a Delighted email survey with available course context.
  • 4Pick New Canvas File Upload as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real file upload.

Questions about this workflow

Will it survey every uploader?

The trigger reports new file uploads. Use your instruction to define who qualifies, and ensure Notis can access their contact details.

Can the email mention the uploaded file?

Notis can use details available from Canvas. Check that the event provides the file context you need, or supply the missing context in your instruction.
