  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for account design context.
  • 3Tell Notis which Canva design to look up when the account changes and how to summarize its metadata for you.
  • 4Choose Account Created or Updated as the trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real account event and confirm the design metadata is returned.
