Why this helps

Useful campaign images can be buried in messages or links when it is time to assemble the creative.

  • Import a public image URL directly into Canva's content library.
  • Keep the campaign context alongside the imported asset.
  • Reduce manual downloading and re-uploading.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Canva once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe when a public campaign image URL should be imported.
  • 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 4Send one real campaign image URL and confirm the uploaded asset in Canva.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow import a private image link?

The URL must be publicly accessible for Canva's URL asset import action to fetch it.

Does this create a full design?

No. It imports an asset into Canva's content library so it can be used in a design later.
