Export Canva designs from ready tasks

A ready task can start the export while you move on to the next decision.

Trigger

Task Details Changed

Triggers when a specific task's details change. This trigger monitors a single Google Task and fires when any of its details (title, notes, status, due date, completion, position) are modified.

Action

Initiates canva design export job

Canva's new job feature exports designs in multiple formats using a design id, with provided download links. the export status can be tracked via an api. exports with 'pro' quality may fail if the design contains unpaid premium elements.

Why this helps

Final exports are easy to forget after approval, delaying launches and handoffs.

  • Shorten delivery time
  • Reduce missed exports
  • Create a repeatable handoff

  • 1Connect Google Tasks and Canva in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Ready design export.
  • 3Tell Notis to initiate a Canva export for the design referenced in a task when the task says ready for delivery.
  • 4Pick Task Details Changed and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one approved design task.
