Why this helps

Grading can leave you switching between Canvas submissions and document versions to understand what changed.

  • Browse paginated comparisons after a grading event.
  • Reduce context switching during post-grading document review.
  • Use Notis to summarize returned comparison details when available.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Draftable once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list Draftable comparisons after a submission is graded and report potentially relevant comparisons.
  • 4Pick Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real grading event and verify the comparisons returned.

Questions about this workflow

Does this retrieve a comparison report automatically?

The available Draftable action lists paginated comparisons. It does not retrieve a detailed report, so the automation can surface comparison records returned by that action.

Can it match a comparison to the exact student submission?

Only if the returned comparison details and grading event provide enough information to establish the match. Otherwise, ask Notis to label the match as uncertain.
