Trigger

Action

Why this helps
At cohort close, credential requests compete with many other wrap-up tasks and are easy to miss.
- Make cohort recognition part of the wrap-up routine.
- Send credentials from a confirmed graduation update.
- Avoid maintaining a separate list of pending graduate awards.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Certifier to Notis once.
- 2Start an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create one.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction for issuing and sending a credential when a graduation post names recipients and supplies the required group details.
- 4Choose the Slack channel message trigger and a run-report channel.
- 5Test with one real cohort graduation update.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow decide who graduated?
No. Use a Slack update that clearly confirms the graduates and gives the required recipient details.
Can a group credential be issued?
Certifier's create, issue, and send action requires the group and recipient details to be ready. Confirm those details in the message and test the workflow.
