Canva × Indify – FAQ

Note: Canva’s embed behavior is evolving. Some features depend on Canva’s support for embedding third-party URLs via its Embed app and Iframely backend.

Q: Can I use Indify inside Canva designs or Canva websites?

In many cases, yes—Canva has an Embed element/app that lets you add certain external websites, forms, maps, and other interactive content into designs by URL. It uses Iframely to render supported URLs inside an iframe.

Q: How do I attempt to embed an Indify widget in Canva?

You can achieve this with the following steps:

1. Create your widget on Indify and copy the widget URL.
2. In Canva, open your design (presentation, website, etc.).
3. Use Elements → Apps → Embed (or the “Embed” element, depending on UI).
4. Paste the Indify URL.
5. If Canva recognizes the URL as embeddable, it will insert a live embed frame that you can resize and position.

If Canva doesn’t recognize the URL, it may show an error or a basic link instead.

Q: The Indify URL isn’t embedding correctly in Canva. What are my options?

If you’re having issues, try the following steps:

• Double-check you pasted the correct https:// widget URL.
• Try re-inserting via the Embed app or element.
• If Canva only shows a link or fails to embed, use one of these fallbacks:
• Screenshot or export the widget from a browser and place it as an image in your design.
• Link text or a button in Canva to open the Indify widget in a browser tab.

Q: Will Indify widgets stay interactive when I download my Canva design as a PDF, PNG, or MP4?

No. Downloads like PDF, PNG, and video export flatten the design into static media, so external embeddings lose interactivity. Interactivity is retained when the design is viewed online as a Canva website, presentation, or through an embed of the Canva design on another site.

Q: Does Indify have an official Canva app?

At the moment, Indify is used via the generic Embed mechanism, not as a dedicated, listed Canva app. You simply use the widget URL like any other embeddable site.

Q: Are there any limitations to embeds inside Canva?

Canva notes that:

• Only certain URL types are supported by the Embed element.
• Users can resize, move, and rotate embeds, but can’t apply Canva effects directly to them.
• Canva stores a reference to the external media rather than the media itself.

If an Indify widget doesn’t work, it’s usually due to these platform-level limitations rather than the widget itself.
