Notis

Give each blog post a cover design draft

Send the post details and let Notis start a cover design in Canva while the article is fresh.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create new Canva design

Creates a design from a preset, custom size, existing design, or brand template.

Why this helps

Blog posts often reach review without a matching cover image or a clear design request.

  • Carry the post topic into design work
  • Start a cover draft without re-entering the brief
  • Keep a design review step

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and Canva once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Canva blog cover design from the submitted post details and visual direction.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one article and review the design for accurate wording.

Questions about this workflow

Does this extract a featured image from Agility?

Only provide the image or its public URL if you want to use it. The workflow uses information supplied in the webhook request.

Can the design be published automatically?

No. It creates a design draft.
