Find webinar options for a newly created Canvas topic

A new discussion topic can point to a useful live session. Notis checks the Demio event list against the topic context.

Trigger

New Canvas Discussion Topic

Polls a Canvas course for new discussion topics.

Action

List Demio Events

Tool to retrieve a list of Demio events. Use when you need to fetch events optionally filtered by type or paginated.

Why this helps

Instructors may create a discussion prompt and then overlook related live learning opportunities in their webinar catalog.

  • Discover possible webinar companions for new topics.
  • Avoid a separate manual event catalog search.
  • Keep recommendations tied to the new topic's available context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Demio once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to compare a new discussion topic with Demio events and report relevant options.
  • 4Pick New Canvas Discussion Topic as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real new discussion topic and review the event suggestions.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a discussion or schedule a webinar?

No. Canvas starts the workflow, and the Demio action only lists events.

Can Notis use course objectives in its comparison?

Yes, if those objectives are present in the available context or supplied in your instruction.
