Action
Retrieve brand template dataset definition
Canva's brand template ids will change later this year, including a 6-month integration migration. api access requires enterprise membership, providing autofill for images, text, and charts, although chart data could change during preview.
Why this helps
Template requests stall because nobody knows which fields or data types are required.
- Clarify template requirements
- Reduce failed autofill attempts
- Speed up content preparation
