Forward Canvas Graded Assignments to Telegram Archive

Grades live in Canvas and get buried. Notis forwards graded assignments to a Telegram archive channel so you can search, reference, and learn from feedback over time.

Trigger

Canvas Assignment Graded

Polls Canvas for newly graded submissions for a specific assignment.

Action

Forward Message

Forward messages of any kind. service messages can't be forwarded.

Why this helps

Grades disappear into Canvas. You often can't find feedback you gave last semester because Canvas search is clunky. A Telegram archive you can search is better.

  • Build a searchable archive of all grading feedback
  • Reference past comments when grading similar work
  • Create institutional memory of your feedback patterns

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Telegram to Notis.
  • 2Create a dedicated Telegram channel for grading archives (optional but recommended).
  • 3Create an automation: "When an assignment is graded, forward the feedback and details to my archive channel."
  • 4Select the Canvas assignment or course to monitor.
  • 5Grade a test assignment and verify it's forwarded to your Telegram archive.

Questions about this workflow

What details get forwarded?

Notis forwards the student name, assignment name, grade, feedback comments, and a link to the submission in Canvas.

Is the archive private?

You can make it a private channel so only you and your team see the graded work.

Can I search the archive easily?

Yes. Telegram's search function lets you find past feedback by student name, assignment, or keyword.
