What This Skill Does

The Canva skill for OpenClaw provides a robust interface for interacting with your Canva workspace via the Connect API. It acts as a bridge between your automated workflows and your design assets. This skill allows you to manage designs, folders, and assets programmatically. You can search for existing projects, trigger exports to various file formats like PDF or PNG, and even automate the population of brand templates with external data. Whether you are maintaining a visual asset pipeline or automating a content marketing workflow, this skill provides the necessary endpoints to keep your creative projects organized without manual intervention.

Installation

To integrate the Canva skill, first ensure you have the OpenClaw environment properly initialized. Install the package using the command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/coolmanns/canva-connect. Once installed, navigate to the Canva Developer portal to register your application and retrieve your Client ID and Secret. Ensure the requested scopes—specifically design:content, asset, and brandtemplate—are correctly enabled. Finally, configure your credentials in the ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json configuration file or via environment variables, then run {baseDir}/scripts/canva.sh auth to complete the OAuth handshake.

Use Cases

This skill is engineered for power users who need to bridge the gap between design and development.

Automated Reporting: Generate charts or images in your backend and upload them directly to a Canva project folder for team review.
Dynamic Branding: Use the Autofill feature to take database records and push them into pre-configured Canva brand templates, generating hundreds of custom social media assets in minutes.
Export Pipelines: Automatically pull high-resolution exports of finished designs from your project folders to use in your production website or technical documentation.

Example Prompts

"Canva, list my recent designs in the Marketing folder and export the latest 'Monthly Newsletter' as a PDF."
"Upload the latest team photo from my desktop to the Canva assets library and create a new presentation using my company template."
"Find the design with ID '12345' and move it to the 'Client Assets' folder."

Tips & Limitations

Please note that this skill is strictly for management and automation. It cannot modify the elements inside a design, such as moving text boxes or changing image filters—it acts as an orchestration layer. It also supports image uploads only, so ensure your source files are in compatible raster formats. Keep your API scopes minimal to maintain security, and always verify your export formats to match your specific output requirements.
