Check shipping rates when course materials change

If course resources include shipped materials, bring the available Stripe shipping rates into the related review.

Trigger

New Canvas File Upload

Polls a Canvas course for new file uploads.

Action

List Stripe shipping rates

Retrieves a list of stripe shipping rates, filterable by active status, creation date, and currency; useful for managing or displaying shipping options.

Why this helps

Shipping details can be forgotten when course materials and billing setup are maintained in separate tools.

  • Retrieves current Stripe shipping rates for review.
  • Uses a real course upload as a cue to check shipping setup.
  • Does not assume a digital course needs shipping.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Stripe once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve shipping rates only when the course materials involve shipping and summarize relevant options.
  • 4Pick New Canvas File Upload as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real upload and confirm the workflow reports shipping context appropriately.

Questions about this workflow

Does this apply shipping rates to a payment?

No. It retrieves available rates for review.

What if the uploaded file is unrelated to shipped materials?

Tell Notis in the prompt to report that shipping context is unavailable or irrelevant rather than infer a shipping need.
