Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Quickbase, Canva, and any additional nodes, donβt 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.

Most powerful ways to connect Quickbase and Canva
Quickbase + Canva + Slack: When a new project request is submitted in Quickbase, a Canva design is automatically generated from a template. Once the design is exported, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel with a link to the design.
Canva + Quickbase + Google Sheets: When a new design is exported from Canva, its details are stored as a new record in Quickbase. This new record creation then triggers the addition of a new row in Google Sheets for reporting and tracking purposes.
