Automations

With automations, instructors can configure triggers that prompt the system to act automatically when certain student criteria are met. With these automations, instructors can provide timely feedback to students without sending messages manually. This approach saves time and increases student engagement, ensuring that feedback is delivered promptly and tailored to each student's performance.

Automations are controlled by a feature flag and are off by default. To enable the feature flag, select Configure in the The Ultra Experience is Here! module. Select Automations.
