Send sheet follow-ups to the right Canny post
Let Notis carry a prepared response from a monitored range into the Canny conversation it belongs to.
Trigger
Cell Range Values Changed
Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.
Action
Create Comment
Tool to create a new comment on a post. use when you have the authorid and postid and want to submit feedback or replies.
Why this helps
A prepared response can be easy to miss when it lives in a sheet instead of the feedback thread.
- Bring prepared follow-ups into the post discussion.
- Reduce manual switching between the response tracker and Canny.
- Use the post and author identifiers already present in the sheet.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Canny once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to comment on the identified Canny post with the changed response, using identifiers present in the range.
- 4Pick Cell Range Values Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real range change containing the comment, post ID, and author ID.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis find the Canny post from its text?
This action requires a post ID and author ID. Include them in the changed range or provide another available source in your instruction.
Can this handle a new reply draft?
Yes. Instruct Notis to create a comment only when the changed value contains a ready-to-send reply.
