Connect Canva to SignPresenter

SignPresenter pulls designs straight out of your Canva account — no exporting, no re-uploading. Connect once, then every Canva design is available as a message.

Before you start

  • Canva integration currently supports horizontal (16:9) screens only. Vertical support is coming.
  • Canva pulls in images only at this time (not videos or animations).
  • Start your Canva designs at at least 1920 × 1080 pixels so they look sharp on TV.
