How to connect Canva and Asana

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Canva, Asana, 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
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Canva and Asana integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Canva and Asana (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Canva and Asana
Canva + Asana + Slack: When a new design is created in Canva, a task is created in Asana to implement the design, and a notification is sent to a Slack channel informing the design team of the new task.
Asana + Canva + Google Drive: When a task is created in Asana, a corresponding Canva design brief is created from a template. The finished design is then exported from Canva and saved to a specific folder in Google Drive.
