Trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

List User Designs

Provides a summary of canva user designs, includes search filtering, and allows showing both self-created and shared designs with sorting options.

Why this helps

You remember a design exists, but finding it means leaving the conversation and searching Canva by hand.

  • Search Canva designs using the request's description.
  • Reduce back-and-forth when someone asks for an existing design.
  • Use returned design summaries to identify a match.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and Canva once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3Describe how to turn the WhatsApp request into a Canva design search.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request that names or describes a design.

Questions about this workflow

Can it search shared designs too?

The Canva action supports search filtering and can include designs created by the user and designs shared with them.

Will it edit or share the matching design?
