Automated Student Progress Reports from LMS to Parents via Gmail & Sheets

This n8n workflow streamlines student progress reporting for online courses and educational platforms. It triggers every Monday at 9 AM to fetch the latest grades, attendance percentages, and progress notes from a Learning Management System (LMS). Data is processed and formatted into professional HTML reports tailored for each student, including details like Student ID, name, grade, attendance, notes, and report date. Reports are then automatically emailed to parents via Gmail, ensuring timely communication without manual effort.

Key benefits include full automation, reducing administrative workload by hours weekly; scalability for multiple students and classes; clear, customizable reports that enhance parent engagement; and built-in error handling with admin alerts. It's ideal for online course providers, tutors, schools, or edtech businesses managing LMS platforms like Moodle, Canvas, or Google Classroom.

Use cases: Weekly parent updates in K-12 or higher education; performance tracking for virtual academies; compliance reporting for educational institutions. Setup requires LMS credentials, Gmail integration, and Google Sheets for logging. Once activated, it runs hands-free, logging deliveries and handling errors seamlessly.
