Find the right existing parser for a new submission
A new submission may use a document format you already handle. Check the available Docparser parsers before adding another manual step.
Trigger
New Canvas Assignment Submission
Polls Canvas for new submissions to 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
Finding the right parser under submission pressure can mean extra searching and inconsistent document handling.
- See existing parser options when a new submission arrives.
- Reduce time spent searching parser settings.
- Help route document review using the tools already configured.
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, including the document context and how Notis should summarize relevant parsers.
- 4Pick New Canvas Assignment Submission as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real submission and confirm the parser list helps with the next step.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow send the submitted file to a parser?
No. The available action lists parsers linked to your Docparser account. It does not upload or process the submission.
Can Notis decide which parser to use?
Notis can compare available parser information with details you supply. If parser purpose or document format is not described, provide that context in the instruction.
Can it retrieve the parsed result instead?
Yes, a separate workflow can use the multiple document results action when the documents have already been processed.
