Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Linear, 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 Linear and Canva integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Linear 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 Linear and Canva
Linear + Canva + Slack: When a Linear issue transitions to a closed state, Canva automatically generates a celebratory graphic using a pre-defined template. This graphic is then posted to a designated Slack channel to notify the team of the accomplishment.
Linear + Canva + Google Drive: When a new issue is created in Linear, a corresponding folder is created in Google Drive. When a Canva design is created, it's automatically uploaded to that folder. This keeps all design assets related to a specific Linear issue organized and easily accessible.
