Why this helps
Remembering to celebrate individual learner milestones can add another follow-up task after grading.
- Recognize a learner promptly after grading.
- Use a prepared letter PDF and approved mailing details.
- Reduce manual follow-up after reviewing grades.

- 5Test with one real graded submission and confirm the recipient and document before mailing.
Questions about this workflow
Does Canvas provide the learner's mailing address?
The listed trigger only polls for newly graded submissions. Provide an approved address source and tell Notis how to match the learner to it.
What does Docupost need to mail the letter?
The action needs recipient and sender details and a PDF. Prepare these details and the letter document, and confirm them before sending.
