# Canva Branded Presentation Creator

Create on-brand Canva presentations from an outline or brief. Use when the user asks to create a branded presentation, make an on-brand deck, turn an outline into slides, or generate a presentation from a brief. Input can be text directly in the message, a reference to a Canva doc by name, or a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/...).

## Canva Branded Presentation Creator

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

## Workflow

*
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

*
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

*
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

*
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

## Presentation Query Format

Structure the query for `Canva:generate-design` with these sections:

Presentation Brief

* Title: working title for the deck

* Topic/Scope: 1-2 lines describing the subject

* Key Messages: 3-5 main takeaways

* Style Guide: tone and imagery style based on the brief

Narrative Arc
One paragraph describing the story flow (e.g., Hook → Problem → Solution → Proof → CTA).

Slide Plan
For each slide include:

* Slide N — "Exact Title"

* Goal: one sentence on the slide's purpose

* Bullets (3-6): short, parallel phrasing with specifics

* Visuals: explicit recommendation (chart type, diagram, image subject)

* Speaker Notes: 2-4 sentences of narrative detail

## Notes

* If multiple brand kits exist, confirm selection before generating; if only one, use it automatically

* If the outline is sparse, expand it into a complete slide plan with reasonable content

* For briefs (narrative descriptions), extract key points and structure them into slides

* Aim for clear, action-oriented slide titles

* Autofill requires a Canva Enterprise plan

## More skills from Canva
Canva Translateby CanvaTranslate all text in a Canva design to another language, creating a translated copy. Faster than manually copying and editing each text box in Canva's editor. Use when users say "translate my design to [language]", "make a Spanish/French/etc version", or "localize my Canva design".Canva Resize for Social Mediaby CanvaResize a Canva design into multiple social media formats (Facebook post, Facebook story, Instagram post, Instagram story, LinkedIn post) and export all versions as PNGs. Use this skill when users want to resize Canva designs specifically for multiple social media platforms in one operation, rather than resizing to a single format manually.
