Build your Classmarker question bank from email requests

When a useful assessment idea arrives by email, have Notis turn it into a structured Classmarker question for your question bank.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

Create Question

Tool to create a new question with specified text, type, and category. Use after finalizing details. Set verify_only=True to validate without creating.

Why this helps

Assessment ideas get buried in the inbox, then require extra time to turn into usable question bank content.

  • Capture assessment ideas while they are fresh.
  • Reduce manual copying from email into the question bank.
  • Ask Notis to validate a proposed question before creating it.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Classmarker once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify actionable assessment requests, draft a question, and validate it before creation.
  • 4Pick New Gmail Message Received as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real email and confirm the question details.

Questions about this workflow

Will every incoming email create a question?

Describe which requests count and what details a question should include. Notis can analyze the email and validate the proposed question before creating it.

Does this workflow assign a category automatically?

The action creates a question with a category. Include the intended category in your instruction; if its ID is not available, ask Notis to flag that information as missing rather than guess.
