Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring AI Agent, Canva, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario

Depending on your setup, data should flow between AI Agent and Canva (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect AI Agent and Canva
AI Agent + Canva + Google Slides: The AI Agent generates presentation content. Canva uses this content to create a new design. Finally, the design is exported and a new presentation is created in Google Slides with this exported design.
Canva + AI Agent + Slack: When a design is created in Canva, it triggers the AI Agent to analyze the design's content. The AI Agent then summarizes the key points, and this summary is sent to a designated Slack channel for discussion and feedback.
