Check Canvas profiles after Zoom updates

Catch identity mismatches before they affect access, messaging, or course records.

Trigger

User Information Changed

Triggers when a Zoom user's information changes. Detects changes such as: - Profile information updates (name, email, display name) - Role or type changes - Department, job title, or location updates - Contact information changes (phone, timezone) - Status changes (active, inactive, pending) - Settings updates (language, pronouns, etc.)

Action

Get User Profile

Retrieves profile information for an existing canvas user.

Why this helps

Name, email, or role changes in Zoom can leave connected Canvas records inconsistent.

  • Surface profile mismatches quickly
  • Reduce access and messaging errors
  • Create a clear review trail

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zoom and Canvas once in Notis.
  • 2Create the automation and describe which user fields to compare.
  • 3Tell Notis how to identify the Canvas user and summarize any mismatch.
  • 4Select User Information Changed as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one changed user profile.

Questions about this workflow

Does this edit the Canvas profile?

No. This workflow retrieves the Canvas profile for review; any edit would require a separate supported action.

Which Zoom changes matter most?

Name, email, role, department, job title, location, timezone, and status changes are useful signals.
