Trigger
New Cloud Recording
Triggers when a new cloud recording meeting instance appears for a user.
Action

Why this helps
Learners struggle to know where a new recording belongs in the course structure.
- Keep course structure current
- Make new recordings easier to locate
- Reduce repetitive course maintenance
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Zoom and Canvas once in Notis.
- 2Create the automation and identify the destination course and module.
- 3Tell Notis how to name and position the module based on the recording details.
- 4Select New Cloud Recording as the trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one new recording.
Questions about this workflow
Can it add the recording as a module item?
This workflow creates the module itself; ask for a separate supported content action if you need an item added.
Can naming follow a course convention?
Yes. Include your naming convention in the plain language instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Zoom to Canvas. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Zoom triggers
Canvas actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create account notification
Creates a global notification within a canvas account, ensuring `end at` is after `start at` and any specified `notification roles` are valid.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create appointment group
Creates a new appointment group in canvas for schedulable time slots within specified course or group contexts.

Create an assignment
Creates a new assignment within a specified course in canvas lms.
Meeting Details Changed
Triggers when a specific meeting's details change. Detects changes such as: - Meeting topic changes - Agenda updates - Schedule changes (timezone, duration) - Settings modifications (waiting room, recording, video, etc.) - Password changes - Recurrence pattern updates
Create assignment override
