Give a WhatsApp request a Canva asset to build around
Pair a short chat request with an asset already in your Canva project to get a design draft started.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create canva design with optional asset
Create a new canva design using a preset or custom dimensions, and add an asset with `asset id` from a user's project using relevant apis.
Why this helps
You have the reference image ready, but copying its ID and brief into a separate design task is easy to put off.
- Use a specified existing project asset as part of a new design.
- Keep the creative request alongside the asset reference.
- Reduce the steps between receiving a request and reviewing a draft.
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 use the WhatsApp request and include the Canva project asset ID plus desired preset or dimensions.
- 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request and a valid Canva project asset ID.
Questions about this workflow
Where does the asset come from?
The request must include an asset ID from the user's Canva project. This action does not search for or upload an asset.
Can I use any image from a WhatsApp chat?
This action accepts a Canva project asset ID. A chat image must already be available in Canva as an asset before you can reference it.

This api creates a folder in a canva user's projects at the top level or within another folder, returning the new folder's id and additional details upon success.
