Find a contact email from a Canvas discussion topic

Turn a relevant name and company domain in a new topic into a business email lead to review.

Trigger

New Canvas Discussion Topic

Fires when a new discussion topic is created in a course.

Action

Find Contact Email

Finds possible business emails and confidence levels; costs 5 credits with a name or 10 with only a domain.

Why this helps

A new topic may surface someone worth contacting, but finding a work email can otherwise mean another manual research session.

  • Searches for a possible business email using a name and company domain from the topic.
  • Returns possible email addresses with confidence levels for review.
  • Keeps contact research close to the event that surfaced the person.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Emaillistverify once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to look for a contact name and company domain in each new topic, search for a possible business email when both are available, and report the confidence level.
  • 4Pick New Canvas Discussion Topic as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real topic that includes a name and company domain.

Questions about this workflow

Does this find an email for every topic?

No. The search requires a contact name and company domain. The trigger itself only reports new Canvas discussion topics.

Is the returned email guaranteed to be correct?

No. The action returns possible emails with confidence levels, including high, medium, low, or unknown. Review the result before using it.

How many credits does the search use?

The action description lists 5 credits when a name is provided, or 10 credits for domain-only search. This workflow asks for both name and domain when available.
