Trigger
New Canvas File Upload

Action
Create Case

Why this helps
Screenshots, logs, and documents can sit in course storage without becoming actionable support work.
- Turns evidence into owned work
- Preserves useful attachments context
- Speeds incident triage
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.

- 5Test with one real support file.
Questions about this workflow
Can it ignore routine course files?
Yes. Instruct Notis to create cases only for files that document an incident or blocker.
Will the original file remain accessible?
The automation can include the Canvas file reference in the case summary.
