Any of you Campaign Monitor users out there know if Campaign Monitor can use a Canva template?  We like CM's SF integration (along with the CM2SF integration software from Beaufort12), but we prefer to do our template design in Canva.  I can't find anything anywhere suggesting that CM can use or import a Canva template.  Just checking before I give up.

    You can use any HTML file as a template in CM, but you will have to add CM template tags.

     BUT! Getting straight HTML out of canva is not easy, iirc. They have embed codes but no longer support Export as HTML, at least on the version I use. Hopefully someone else will know where that went. They have an agreement w/ Mailchimp to suck in their smart templates, but CM doesn't. If template building is a rare occurrence, then you could pay one of many services to convert a saved PDF to an HTML file for you then upload it. (Ask Karen U the name of the one Perc has used, I have forgotten) Or do the conversion yourself w/ free online tools and some html skill cleaning it up.  

     

    CM templates are about as easy to build as Canva, I think, with the added benefit of guaranteed compatibility with CM's great deliverability checks.
