Send Telegram Photo When Canvas Assignment Is Graded

Grading takes focus. Notis sends a photo confirmation to Telegram each time grades are posted, giving you a satisfying record of what's done.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Fires when a new submission for an assignment is graded.

Action

Send Photo

Sends one photo to a Telegram chat per call.

Why this helps

After grading a batch of assignments, it's easy to lose track of which ones you've marked. A quick visual confirmation helps you stay organized.

  • Visual confirmation helps track your grading progress
  • Stay motivated by seeing concrete work completion
  • Create a timestamped archive of when grades were posted

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Telegram to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: "When an assignment is graded, send a photo to Telegram showing completion."
  • 3Select the Canvas assignment to track.
  • 4Choose your Telegram channel for confirmations.
  • 5Grade an assignment and verify the photo appears in Telegram.

Questions about this workflow

What photo does Notis send?

You can customize it in your automation prompt. Notis can generate a branded confirmation image, screenshot the grade, or use a static image you specify.

Can I add custom text to the photo?

Yes. Your prompt can ask Notis to include the assignment name, grade count, or other details on the confirmation image.

Is this just for visual tracking?

Mainly yes, though you can also add metadata (like grade statistics) to make the confirmation more informative.
