Start launch creative from the task brief

A launch task can give Canva a head start, reducing the context switching between planning the announcement and beginning its visuals.

Trigger

Issue Created Trigger

Triggered when a new issue is created.

Action

Create canva design with optional asset

Create a new canva design using a preset or custom dimensions, and add an asset with `asset id` from a user's project using relevant apis.

Why this helps

Launch preparation gets fragmented when copy, timing, and visual work live in separate places.

  • Keep the launch brief connected to the creative starting point.
  • Make it easier to begin visual work while context is fresh.
  • Reduce manual transfer between planning and design.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Canva to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create a new automation and give it a name you will recognize.
  • 3Write one prompt asking Notis to create a Canva design for new issues requesting launch or announcement creative.
  • 4Select the Linear Issue Created trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a representative launch issue and review the design.

Questions about this workflow

Can the prompt focus only on launch issues?

Describe the relevant issue context in plain language so Notis can determine which requests should lead to a design.

Does the workflow publish the launch creative?

No. It creates a design starter for review in Canva.
