Lists brand templates available to the user (Canva Enterprise only). This endpoint retrieves all brand templates the user has access to. Brand templates are pre-designed layouts with variable data fields that can be populated programmatically using the autofill API. Returns template metadata including IDs, names, and dataset schemas.
Uploads an asset file to the user's Canva content library. This endpoint initiates an asynchronous upload job for images, videos, audio files, PDFs, or fonts. Returns a job ID to track the upload progress. Once complete, the asset can be used in designs, referenced by its asset ID, and managed through other asset endpoints. IMPORTANT: This is an async operation. Use CANVA_FETCH_ASSET_UPLOAD_JOB_STATUS to poll the job status until it reaches 'success' or 'failed' status.
DEPRECATED: Use CANVA_POST_EXPORTS instead. Exports a Canva design to various file formats. This endpoint initiates an asynchronous export job for designs. Supports image formats (PNG, JPG, GIF), documents (PDF, PPTX), and video (MP4). Each format has specific configuration options like dimensions, quality, and page selection. IMPORTANT: This is an async operation. Use GET_DESIGN_EXPORT_JOB_RESULT to poll the job status until completion and retrieve the download URLs for the exported files.
DEPRECATED: Use CANVA_POST_DESIGNS instead. Creates a new Canva design with specified dimensions or from an asset. This endpoint creates a design using either a preset type (doc, presentation, whiteboard), custom dimensions, or by importing an image asset. Returns the design ID, URLs for editing and viewing, owner info, and metadata. The design can be immediately accessed and edited.

Start design export job
Starts a new asynchronous job to export a Canva design file. Use when exporting designs to various formats (PDF, JPG, PNG, GIF, PPTX, MP4). Returns a job ID that can be used to poll for completion status and download URLs. IMPORTANT: Format compatibility varies by design type. Before exporting, use the CANVA_GET_DESIGNS_DESIGNID_EXPORT_FORMATS action to check which formats are supported for the specific design. Attempting to export in an unsupported format will result in a 400 error (e.g., 'png export not supported for this design type').
