Bring shared Dub resources into assignment review
When a submission comes in, Notis can search Dub for links related to the course or assignment and include the results in its run report.
Trigger
New Canvas Assignment Submission
Polls Canvas for new submissions to a specific assignment.
Action
Get Links
Tool to retrieve a paginated list of links for the authenticated workspace. Use when you need to list links with optional filtering by domain, tags, folder, search terms, or user. Supports pagination and sorting for efficient retrieval of large link collections.
Why this helps
Reviewing work can mean switching between Canvas and link records to recall which resources learners were given.
- Surface matching Dub links in the submission run report.
- Reduce app switching while reviewing a new submission.
- Use Dub's link search to check known course or assignment references.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Dub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis what course or assignment terms to search in Dub and to summarize matching links in the run report.
- 4Pick the New Canvas Assignment Submission trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real submission and confirm the report shows relevant matches.
Questions about this workflow
Will Dub tell me which links a learner actually opened?
No. This action retrieves a list of links using available filters. It does not provide individual learner click history.
What if the submission does not include useful search terms?
Tell Notis to report that context is missing and avoid guessing. You can provide a consistent course or assignment naming convention in the automation instruction.
