Create and link Linear workflow content directly within Canva

Overview⁠

Connect Linear to Canva AI to bring your issues, projects, and team context directly into your design workflow. Use Linear data as context to generate presentations, social posts, reports, and other designs without leaving Canva.

How it works⁠

The Canva integration for Linear connects your Linear workspace to Canva AI, letting you pull issues, projects, and team data into your conversations. Once connected, you can ask Canva AI to retrieve information from Linear and use it as context to generate designs, documents, and visual content. For example, you could ask Canva AI to create a sprint review presentation based on your recently completed issues, or generate a project status report from your current cycle.

To get started, open Canva AI and select the Linear connector from the connectors menu. You’ll be prompted to authenticate with your Linear account via OAuth. Once connected, Canva AI can access your Linear data and use it alongside its design and content generation capabilities. You can reference your Linear issues, projects, and workflows naturally in your prompts, and Canva AI will fetch the relevant context to inform what it creates.

The integration is read-only, meaning Canva AI can retrieve data from your Linear workspace but will not create, modify, or delete any issues or other data in Linear. You can disconnect the integration at any time from the connectors menu in Canva AI.
