Find existing document workflows in grading follow-up

If a graded submission needs document follow-up, check which Docparser parsers are already available before starting from scratch.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

List Parsers

Tool to retrieve all Document Parsers linked to your account. Use when you need to view available parsers or obtain parser IDs for subsequent operations.

Why this helps

Post-grading follow-up can stall when no one knows which parser or document workflow is already configured.

  • Locate existing parser options after a grading event.
  • Reduce repeated configuration searches.
  • Support faster, more consistent document follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Docparser once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from your usual channel.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction, asking Notis to list parsers relevant to the submission follow-up context.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission and confirm the parser list helps inform follow-up.

Questions about this workflow

Does this identify parsed results for the graded submission?

No. It lists parsers. Use the multiple document results action to retrieve parsed data that already exists.

Can it search all available parsers?

Yes. The parser list action returns parsers linked to your account, which Notis can summarize based on your instruction.

Does this change any grade or parser settings?

No. It reads the parser inventory and does not change Canvas grades or Docparser configuration.
