Organize exam cohorts from scheduled sessions

Give each planned cohort a clear place in ClassMarker as soon as its session appears on your calendar.

Trigger

Event Created

Polling trigger that fires when a new calendar event is created. Returns event ID, summary, start/end times, and organizer info.

Action

Create Group

Tool to create a new group. Use when you need to organize users into a specific group after planning your user structure.

Why this helps

Cohort setup gets delayed when creating the group is a separate task someone must remember after scheduling.

  • Tie cohort organization to the event that establishes it.
  • Reduce follow-up reminders for group setup.
  • Keep new group creation part of session preparation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and ClassMarker once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to create a ClassMarker group for a new cohort session, using the session information and any group details you supply if missing.
  • 4Choose the Event Created trigger and choose a destination for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real cohort event and review the group created.

Questions about this workflow

Can the calendar event define the entire group structure?

Only if it contains the needed details. Provide any group structure or naming rule that is not present in the event.

Does this workflow add people to the group?

The selected action creates a group. Membership assignment is not part of this workflow.
