Actions
What your agents can do in Canva
4 actions. Each one is a tool your agents can call and a step your workflows can run.
Read 3
Look things up. Nothing changes.
List designs
Lists the designs in the person's Canva projects, including ones shared with them, optionally matching search terms, only owned or only shared, and sorted by relevance, last change or title.
Export a design
Starts exporting a design to a file: PDF (optionally on a4, a3, letter or legal paper), PNG, JPG (quality 1 to 100, default 90), GIF or PowerPoint, all pages or only some.
Get an export job
Reads an export job started by Export a design: job.status is in_progress, success or failed.
Write 1
Create, change or send.
Create a design
Creates a new, empty Canva design in the person's projects.
A person can approve first
Any write action can be set to wait for a person's approval before it runs, so an agent asks before it changes anything.
Connection
How it connects
Connect it once in the console, then give it to the agents and workflows that need it.
Sign in with Canva and approve access (OAuth).
Kept safe
- Credentials are stored encrypted with your organization's own keys.
- They are opened only by the process that makes the call, at the moment it runs, and never go into a prompt or the browser.
- Calls go only to the tool's own servers.
Ideas
Ideas to start with
Starting points made only from the actions above. Mix them with any other tool your agents can use.
- 01
Ask about your Canva data
Ask a question in plain words. The agent can list designs or get an export job in Canva, then answers with what it found.
- 02
Let an agent update Canva
Have the agent create a design in Canva as part of a larger task. Turn on approval and a person signs off on each change first.
- 03
Share what it finds in Slack
Give one agent Canva and Slack: it can list designs in Canva and post a summary to a Slack channel in the same run.
