Notis

Move editorial briefs into design work

Send the brief when it is ready and give the design task a clear starting point in Canva.

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

Editorial work gets delayed when the designer has to chase down format, audience, and message details.

  • Keep the design request tied to the brief
  • Reduce clarification loops
  • Start an editable design for review

Setup

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and Canva once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Canva design that follows the submitted brief and requested format.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one complete brief and review the design against its intended format.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow choose a format if none is specified?
