CreatividadOAuthDocumentación para desarrolladores de Canva ↗

Canva connects through OAuth 2.0. You authorize Modiva from Canva's own consent screen — Modiva then browses and creates designs, starts and tracks export jobs, and browses your folders through one unified API and MCP server. Canva access tokens are short-lived; Modiva refreshes them automatically so your connection stays healthy without you reconnecting.

Antes de empezar

A Canva account.
Access to the Canva account whose designs you want to manage.

Configuración paso a paso

1
Sign in to Modiva
Log in at modiva.ai and open the Dashboard. You need a Modiva account before you can connect any platform — creating one takes a minute and no credit card is required for the free tier.
The Modiva dashboard — your home for connections, posts and analytics.
2
Open Connections → New connection
In the left sidebar choose Connections, then click New connection. You'll see the full catalogue of platforms grouped by category (Social, Ads and CRM).
The connection picker. Use the search box or category filter to find your platform.
3
Select Canva
Click the Canva card. Modiva redirects you to Canva's official sign-in and permission screen — your password is entered on Canva, never on Modiva.
Click Connect on the Canva card to start the secure OAuth flow.
4
Authorize Modiva on Canva
Review the permissions Modiva is requesting and approve them. If you manage more than one account, page or profile, pick the one you want Modiva to manage.
Canva's consent screen. Approve the requested scopes to continue.
5
You're connected
Canva now sends you back to Modiva and the connection appears with a green Connected status. From here it's available to every MCP key and API call in your workspace.
A healthy connection shows a green dot and the connected account name.

Resolución de problemas y FAQ

Where is my Canva password stored?

Nowhere. You sign in on the provider's own site and Modiva only receives a scoped access token, which is encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. Modiva never sees your password.

My connection says Expired or Error — what do I do?

Open Connections, find the platform and click Reconnect (or Refresh token). Providers periodically expire tokens or revoke them when you change your password; reconnecting re-runs the consent screen and restores access.

How do I disconnect?

Open Connections, click the Canva row and choose Disconnect. Modiva deletes the stored token immediately. You can also revoke Modiva from inside Canva's own app settings.

How do design exports work?

Exports are asynchronous. Modiva starts an export job for a design (PNG, JPG, PDF, GIF, MP4 or PPTX) and then polls until it finishes, returning the download URLs. Large or multi-page designs simply take a little longer to complete.

Which Canva account gets connected?

The account you're signed into when you approve the consent screen. If you belong to several Canva teams, switch to the one you want before authorizing.

My token keeps needing refresh — is that a problem?

No. Canva access tokens last about four hours by design. Modiva stores a refresh token and renews access automatically in the background, so you won't be asked to reconnect unless you revoke access in Canva.
