How to connect ClickUp and Canva
Create a New Scenario to Connect ClickUp and Canva
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a ClickUp, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, ClickUp or Canva will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find ClickUp or Canva, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the ClickUp Node
Select the ClickUp node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring ClickUp, 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
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the ClickUp and Canva integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ClickUp and Canva (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
