Make invoice documents editable in Canva
Send an invoice through your Affinda workflow, then let Notis create an editable Canva design from the source file.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Design Import Job
Imports a file as a new editable design; the job runs asynchronously.
Why this helps
Invoice details can be useful in a deck or review, but recreating or converting the source document adds another manual step.
- Reduce copy and paste when preparing invoice material for review.
- Keep an editable Canva version of the source document.
- Use a webhook to start the workflow when your document process is ready.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Canva once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to import the invoice file supplied by the Affinda workflow into Canva as an editable design.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real invoice and confirm the imported design in Canva.
Questions about this workflow
Does Affinda start this automation with a native trigger?
Affinda has no listed trigger events, so this workflow uses a Notis webhook. Your Affinda process can send an HTTP request to start it.
Does this create an editable Canva design?
Yes. It uses Canva's design import job to convert a supported document into a Canva design. Canva processes the import asynchronously.
