Canva MCP server
Short answer: Yes. Canva has an official MCP server: com.canva.mcp/mcp, published in the official MCP Registry under the verified mcp.canva.com domain and hosted at https://mcp.canva.com/mcp.
This page covers the official server for Canva, the listed connection options, and what to check before using Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. Registry entries checked in October 2026.
What can you do with the Canva MCP server?
Canva's official server is hosted at mcp.canva.com and lets an assistant create, search, edit and export designs and assets in your Canva account.
- Generate social graphics in a set of sizes from one brief.
- Find a design in your folders and export it as PDF or PNG.
- Update text across a set of existing designs.
Is there an official Canva MCP server?
Yes. The MCP Registry only lets a publisher use a namespace it has proved it controls, through the vendor's domain or its GitHub organisation. This entry is published under Canva's own namespace: com.canva.mcp/mcp.
What should you check before connecting Canva?
- Which Canva team and brand kits your account belongs to; the assistant works within them.
- Review generated designs before they are shared with a client.

How do I connect the Canva MCP server to Claude?
The registry lists a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.canva.com/mcp. Check the publisher's authentication and client requirements, then add the endpoint as a custom connector in Claude and complete any sign-in it requires.
In Claude Code, run:
claude mcp add --transport http canva https://mcp.canva.com/mcpDoes the Canva MCP server work with ChatGPT?
A hosted endpoint is available at https://mcp.canva.com/mcp. ChatGPT needs a compatible remote transport and authentication flow, and your account or workspace must allow custom MCP connections. Confirm those requirements with the publisher before connecting.
How do I add it to Cursor?
Start with this remote endpoint in .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for every project. Add any authentication fields required by the publisher:
{
"mcpServers": {
"canva": {
"url": "https://mcp.canva.com/mcp"
}
}
}
