Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Facebook Messenger, Canva, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy."

Depending on your setup, data should flow between Facebook Messenger 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 Facebook Messenger and Canva

Finally, the image on Google Drive is used in Canva to create a collage, which can then be shared manually.
Shopify + Canva + Facebook Messenger: When a new product is created in Shopify, upload image to Canva, then a message is sent via Facebook Messenger with the new image.
