About The Team

With the rapid evolution of generative AI and the growing complexity of workflows at scale, Canva is uniquely positioned to become the platform of choice for discovering and accessing services related to visual design. We're already partnering with thousands of developers through our Apps SDK and public REST API to bring these capabilities to life.

As part of the Ecosystem group, the Developer Experience team owns the Canva Developer Portal - the platform that empowers third-party developers to build Apps that run inside Canva, as well as Integrations powered by our Connect API.

We also support internal teams through the Admin Portal, which enables our App Review team to efficiently and effectively assess the quality, security, and readiness of developer submissions.
