Connect Canva and Dora can find a client's designs and brand templates and link the latest version, so nobody sends last week's file.

  1. 1

    Open Integrations

    In Dora, open Settings and find Canva under Integrations, or search for it.

  2. 2

    Sign in to Canva

    Choose Connect. Canva asks you to sign in and allow access, then sends you back to Dora, connected. There's no key to copy.

  3. 3

    Ask, or tag it

    Ask Dora in her chat or on a request, or type $Canva to point her at it.

A few things to ask, and what she does with them.

  • Link the latest version

    Ask "Link the latest Acme social templates from Canva to this request." Dora finds the design and adds the link.

  • Find the brand templates

    Ask "Which Canva brand templates do we have for Halcyon?" Dora lists them, ready to start from.

  • Search by what's in it

    Ask "Find the Pinewood flyer with the spring offer in Canva." Dora searches your designs and folders.

  • Your account, your connection

    You connect Canva for yourself. Dora uses it only when you ask, and nobody else on your team can reach your Canva through her.

  • Read-only

    Dora only gets the tools Canva marks as read-only. She looks things up; she doesn't edit, delete, or send anything in Canva.

  • A summary and a link

    She brings in what the task needs, summarized, with a link back to Canva, instead of pasting everything into the request.

  • Dora can find your Canva designs and link the latest version. You connect your own Canva account, and Dora reads from it when you ask: in her chat, on a request, or while you write one. She only reads, and brings back a summary with a link to the source.

  • The designs, folders, and brand templates your Canva account can see. She signs in as you, with read-only access.

  • Yes. She can find your brand templates and what's in them, so requests start from the client's approved templates.

  • Open Settings in Dora, find Canva under Integrations, and choose Connect. You sign in on Canva's own page and allow access, and you're sent back to Dora, connected. There's no API key to copy.

  • Only you. Each person connects their own apps, and Dora uses only the connections of the person asking. If a teammate needs Canva too, they connect their own account.

  • Ask in plain words, like "check Canva", or type $ and pick Canva. It shows as a tag in comments and in Dora's chat, and tells her which app to use for that ask.

  • No. Integrations are on every Dora plan, including your free first client. Asking Dora counts toward your company's Dora allowance like any other ask, and your Canva plan is separate.

  • In Dora, open Settings, find Canva under Integrations, and choose Disconnect. Dora stops using it right away.
