Most powerful ways to connect Canva and Microsoft Power BI

Canva + Google Sheets + Microsoft Power BI: Whenever a design is exported from Canva, a new row is added to a Google Sheet with the design details. Microsoft Power BI then uses this data from the Google Sheet to update its dashboards, tracking design asset usage.

Microsoft Power BI + Canva + Slack: When Power BI detects a KPI drop based on dataset analysis, it automatically generates a Canva image highlighting the problem. This image is then sent to a designated Slack channel to alert the team.
