Turn code scanning alerts into security learning checkpoints
A security alert should create a visible learning checkpoint, not just another notification.
Trigger
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Action
Create Grade Object
Creates a grade item for an organizational unit.
Why this helps
Security follow-up can disappear among urgent product and customer work.
- Creates a concrete place to track security understanding.
- Makes recurring security work easier to notice and revisit.
- Keeps alert-driven education connected to the source repository.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and D2lbrightspace to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a prompt: For each new GitHub code scanning alert, create a Brightspace grade object for the appropriate security learning activity and include the alert context.
- 3Select New Code Scanning Alert Created as the trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis reports runs and test with one non-sensitive alert.
Questions about this workflow
Can the alert details be shared with learners?
Use a prompt that asks Notis to include only safe, non-secret context suitable for the course.
Does this grade learners automatically?
No. It creates the grade object; grading remains a separate decision.
