Start quiz reviews with the current details in hand
Let the review request bring the quiz context along, so you can focus on deciding what needs attention.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Quiz
Retrieves a specific quiz from an org unit. returns a quizreaddata json block containing the quiz's properties. requires oauth2 scope: - quizzing:quizzes:read available in api versions 1.75+ (lms v20.24.5+)
Why this helps
Assessment review can lose momentum when the quiz has to be located and reopened before the conversation can start.
- Fetches the requested quiz at review time.
- Reduces context switching between request and course.
- Makes current quiz properties available in the run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Hookdeck and D2L Brightspace to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation named for quiz review requests.
- 3Prompt Notis to retrieve the quiz specified in each valid review request and summarize its current properties.
- 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger and reporting channel, then test with one real quiz review request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow edit the quiz?
No. Get Quiz retrieves a specific quiz. Quiz updates use another action.
What if the request does not identify the quiz?
Include in the prompt that Notis should report the missing information and wait for a clear identifier.
