  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: review the latest available Dotsimple reports and summarize the metrics returned.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real graded assignment.

Questions about this workflow

Does this publish or change a Dotsimple post?

No. The selected Dotsimple action lists account reports. Notis can summarize the report data it receives.

Can it compare performance with the previous week?

Only if Dotsimple returns suitable historical reports for that comparison. Otherwise, the run report should state that a baseline is missing.
