Flag Classmarker test-taker access issues in Slack

Make access problems easier to spot in the conversation where the team is already coordinating.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add reaction to message

Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.

Why this helps

An access issue buried in a busy channel can delay help for a test taker.

  • Surface reported access issues
  • Make follow-up items visible in an existing conversation
  • Reduce time spent scanning channel messages

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Classmarker and Slack once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to add a suitable reaction to the specified Slack message when a webhook reports a Classmarker test-taker access issue.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real issue report that identifies an existing Slack message.

Questions about this workflow

Does Classmarker automatically trigger this?

Classmarker has no listed trigger events. A webhook HTTP request must start the automation with the issue details.

What information must the request include?

It should identify the reported issue and the existing Slack message to react to. Notis cannot infer a message timestamp or channel that was not supplied or retrieved.
