Find relevant records when a Canvas assignment is graded
Review related records from Elasticsearch alongside each newly graded Canvas submission.
Trigger
Canvas Assignment Graded
Fires when a new submission for an assignment is graded.
Action
Query Index
Searches an Elasticsearch index for documents.
Why this helps
Grade review can mean switching between Canvas and a separate search tool to find the context behind a submission.
- Find related existing records without leaving the grade review flow.
- Keep the search focused on one assignment and its newly graded submissions.
- Receive matching results in the automation run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to search the specified Elasticsearch index for records related to each newly graded submission; provide the index and relevant fields in your instruction.
- 4Choose Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real graded submission and review the report.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow write grades into Elasticsearch?
No. The available Elasticsearch action searches an index and returns matching documents; it does not write or update records.
What does Notis need to search the right records?
Specify the index and relevant searchable fields in your instruction. The workflow cannot assume that Canvas data is already indexed.
