Requirements & Prerequisites

Before installing and configuring the Webkul Magento 2 Canva Connector extension, ensure your system environment satisfies the following prerequisites.

System Requirements

PHP	`8.1`, `8.2`, `8.3`, `8.4`, `8.5`	`ext-json`, `ext-curl`, `ext-openssl`, `ext-gd` or `ext-imagick`

Core Module Dependencies

The Canva Connector relies on Webkul's shared licensing and base utilities:

Webkul_Base: Must be installed and registered in app/code/Webkul/Base or via Composer.

Tips

The Webkul_Base module is included automatically with the extension package or when downloading from the Webkul Store.

Canva Developer Requirements

To connect Magento with Canva, you must possess a Canva Developer account:

Canva Account: Sign up or log in at canva.com.
Canva Developer Portal Access: Navigate to canva.com/developers to access developer tools and create applications.
App Permissions: Access to create both a Canva App (Frontend UI) and a Canva Connect Integration (Backend REST API).

Network & HTTPS Requirements

Canva enforces strict security policies for OAuth and App Source URLs:

Production Environments: Must use valid public HTTPS domain URLs with trusted SSL certificates.
Local Development Environments:
- The Canva Frontend app runs locally on http://localhost:8083.
- For Magento OAuth callbacks during local testing, use a local tunnel such as Cloudflare Tunnel or ngrok to provide an HTTPS endpoint for Canva callbacks (e.g. https://your-tunnel.trycloudflare.com/canva/auth/callback).
