Create a Canvas enrollment from a new slide
Move confirmed registrations into the course without retyping details.
Trigger
New Slide Added
Fires when a new slide is added to a Google Slides presentation.
Action
Create enrollment
Enrolls a user in a canvas course with a specified role and status; `associated user id` is required if `enrollment type` is 'observerenrollment'.
Why this helps

- Reduce entry errors
- Keep onboarding moving

Questions about this workflow
Can it handle observer enrollment?
Yes, when you provide the associated user id required for that enrollment type.
What if required identifiers are missing?
Ask Notis to report the missing identifier instead of creating an incomplete enrollment.
