Close the loop from grading to pending signatures

When review reaches a point that needs formal sign-off, distribute the existing agreement to its pending recipients from the grading event.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Distribute Document V2

Tool to distribute a document for signing. Use when you need to send a document to all or specific pending recipients.

Why this helps

The handoff from a completed grade to the people who need to sign can be lost among routine course tasks.

  • Connect a review milestone to a signature follow-up.
  • Send an existing agreement to pending recipients.
  • Keep course-related approvals from getting stuck after grading.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Documenso once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis which graded outcomes call for distributing an existing Documenso document and how to identify that document and its pending recipients.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger, choose where run reports go, and test with one real example.

No. The distribute action sends an existing document to pending recipients. It must already be prepared and identifiable.

Can it send only to some pending signers?
