Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Insightly, 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 Insightly and Canva integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Insightly 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 Insightly and Canva
Insightly + Canva + Slack: When a new client is added to Insightly, a welcome package design is created in Canva using a pre-defined template. A message is then sent to a designated Slack channel to notify the team about the new client and the availability of the welcome package.
Canva + Insightly + Google Sheets: When a new design is uploaded to Canva, it is then imported into Insightly and a record of the design's usage is tracked in a Google Sheet. This allows for monitoring which designs are being used and how frequently.
