Turn low Canvas grades into Salesforce follow-ups

Catch learners who may need support and give your team a clear next step in Salesforce.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Create task

Creates a new task in salesforce to track activities, to-dos, and follow-ups related to contacts, leads, or other records.

Why this helps

A low grade can be easy to miss when learner progress lives in Canvas and follow-ups live in Salesforce.

  • Create a next step as soon as a grade is recorded.
  • Include the assignment and grade context in the task.
  • Use a threshold and Salesforce record matching rule you provide.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Salesforce once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, state the grade threshold, record matching approach, and task details to include.
  • 4Choose Canvas Assignment Graded as the trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real graded submission.

Questions about this workflow

Can I choose what counts as a low grade?

Yes. State the threshold in your instruction. Canvas provides the graded submission, and Notis can apply the threshold you specify.

How does the workflow find the Salesforce record?

Tell Notis how to identify the learner's contact or related record. If Canvas data does not contain enough information to match it, supply the matching rule or identifier.
