Frequently asked questions
Can my AI agent export my presentation as a PDF and give me the download link?
Yes! You can ask the AI to export any of your specific designs. The agent triggers an asynchronous export job in Canva (supporting PDF, MP4, JPEG, and more), monitors the progress, and ultimately provides you the native physical download URL right in the chat.
Am I able to upload midjourney or generated assets directly to Canva folders?
Absolutely. The agent can take image URLs from anywhere and upload them directly into your Canva asset pipeline securely. It creates the structural IDs automatically, so the new images are immediately available when you open Canva's design editor.
Can the agent create new design templates from scratch?
The agent can provision standard new designs using preset types (like Presentation, Poster, or InstagramPost) and retrieve your existing brand templates to keep everything aligned. However, actually placing visual elements on a canvas is restricted to the Canva editor UI via web.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Canva tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
