The Assets APIs now support video files. Support for video assets is currently provided as a preview feature. For a list of supported file types, see the Assets API overview.

The Folder access requested webhook event now returns a FolderSummary object type instead of Folder. We've also fixed an issue where the created_at and updated_at timestamps for a folder were incorrectly returned as milliseconds since the UNIX epoch. These timestamps now correctly represent seconds since the UNIX epoch.

The Share folder webhook event now includes created_at and updated_at timestamps for a folder. Also, the folder name property has been added, which should be used instead of the now-deprecated title property.

The Autofill APIs now return a page_count property for multi-page designs in a successful job.
The Design import APIs now return a page_count property for multi-page designs in a successful job.
The List folder items API now returns a page_count property for all multi-page designs in the requested folder.
Webhook notification events now return a page_count property in the design summary for all multi-page designs.

A new preview API is available: Get design export formats. This API lets you retrieve a list of supported file formats that can be used to export a design.

Webhook notification events for suggestions (suggested edits in a Canva Doc) are now sent to integrations that have notifications enabled. See Suggestion notifications for details.

A new preview API is available: Get design pages. This API lets you retrieve per-page metadata, which currently includes page-specific thumbnails.

The Design import APIs are no longer in preview, and are now generally available.
The Folders APIs are no longer in preview, and are now generally available.

The List brand templates API now supports an optional dataset query parameter. This can be used to filter results to only include brand templates with or without data fields defined (for use with the Autofill APIs).

The Create design autofill job API now accepts data values for chart data fields, which lets you autofill tabular data for chart elements. Chart data fields are currently a preview feature.
The Get brand template dataset API now returns chart data fields for brand templates which contain chart elements. Chart elements and data fields in brand templates are created using the Data autofill app. Chart data fields are currently a preview feature.
The responses for the preview Design import APIs have been revised to align with the response formats used by our other asynchronous job APIs.

Previously, the created_at property in the preview feature for webhook payloads was incorrectly returned as milliseconds since the UNIX epoch. This has been fixed, so created_at now correctly represents seconds since the UNIX epoch.

The Designs APIs now return a page_count property.
When using the Create design export job API to export designs as a PNG, the lossless parameter is now set to true by default.

We made this change to the default value without creating a new API version because the previous behavior was a bug that significantly affected the user experience. Lossy PNG compression is a premium feature, and under the previous default value for the parameter, users on the Canva Free plan could not export to PNG.
The List folder items preview API now returns image instead of asset. The asset option in the item_types filter has also been replaced with image.

For the List folder items preview API, the response for the design object type no longer includes owner information.
The List folder items preview API no longer accepts template as query parameter for item_types, and no longer returns template or brand_template item types in the response.
In the Move folder item preview API, the from_folder_id parameter has been removed.

The Assets APIs now return an additional type property as part of the asset object. Currently, type can only have the value of image, but more asset types are being added in future updates.

The Autofill APIs now return created_at and updated_at timestamps in the design summary for jobs with a success status. Temporary urls for viewing or editing the design have also been added to the response.

The Brand template APIs now return created_at and updated_at timestamps for all brand templates.
The Designs APIs now return created_at and updated_at timestamps for all returned designs.
The Get design import job API now returns created_at and updated_at timestamps for designs imported using the Create design import job API.
The List folder items API now returns created_at and updated_at timestamps for all designs in the requested folder.

The Autofill APIs are no longer in preview, and are now generally available.
The Brand template APIs are no longer in preview, and are now generally available.
