Canva Branded Presentation Creator

Create professional, on-brand presentations in Canva from user-provided outlines or briefs.

Workflow

  1. Get the content source
    • If the user provides text directly, use that as the outline/brief
    • If the user provides a Canva design ID directly (typically starts with D, e.g. DABcd1234ef), use it as design_id with Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents; do not use Canva:search-designs for a raw ID
    • If the user provides a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/DAG.../...), extract the design ID from the URL and use Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents
    • If the user references a Canva doc by name, use Canva:search-designs to find it, then Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents
  2. List available brand kits
    • Call Canva:list-brand-kits to retrieve the user’s brand kits
    • If only one brand kit exists, use it automatically without asking
    • If multiple brand kits exist, present the options and ask the user to select one
  3. Generate the presentation
    • Call Canva:generate-design with:
      • design_type: “presentation”
      • brand_kit_id: the selected brand kit ID
      • query: a detailed prompt following the presentation format below
    • Show the generated candidates to the user
  4. Finalize
    • Ask the user which candidate they prefer
    • Call Canva:create-design-from-candidate to create the editable design
    • Provide the user with the link to their new presentation
