File Canva work in the right folder

Send a filing request with the item and destination IDs, and move the work into its project folder.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Move item to specified folder

Transfers an item to a different folder by specifying both the destination folder's id and the item's id. if the item is in various folders, an error occurs; manual relocation via canva ui is required.

Why this helps

A finished design can be easy to lose when it remains outside the folder where the team expects to find it.

  • Move an item using its ID and the destination folder ID.
  • Handle filing as part of a project handoff.
  • Reduce manual folder cleanup after design work.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Canva once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to move the item identified in each request to its specified destination folder.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real item and folder ID, then confirm the item's location.

Questions about this workflow

What information does the request need?

It needs the item's ID and the destination folder's ID.

What if an item is already in multiple folders?

Canva may return an error in that case. Manual relocation in the Canva UI is required.
