Give new subscribers their Canvas course access
When a Stripe subscription starts, Notis can find the learner in Canvas and enroll them in the right course.
Trigger
Subscription Added Trigger
Triggered when a subscription is added in Stripe
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
Subscription-based programs create recurring roster work and make it easy to overlook a new member.
- Turn subscription starts into timely course access.
- Reduce manual roster updates for recurring programs.
- Use a clear course rule for each subscriber workflow.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Stripe and Canvas once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis which Canvas course a new subscriber should access.
- 3Pick the Stripe Subscription Added trigger.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real subscription and verify the enrollment.
Questions about this workflow
Can this choose different courses for different subscriptions?
Describe the subscription-to-course rule in your instruction. Test it with a real subscription to confirm the intended course is selected.
Does the workflow create a Canvas user?
The action enrolls a user in an existing course. Make sure the learner already exists in Canvas or ask Notis to report unmatched users.
