Building something where I use Open AI for texts and Dall-e for images. What I am looking for now is an automation to use the OpenAI text and the Dall-e image in a design template. For example send the text and the image to something like Canva and then make it a Insta post. Does anyone have an idea for this? Don’t think Canva works via Zapier.

I’ve never used Canva, but it looks like it does have an [API](https://www.canva.dev/docs/apps/), which means that it’s probably possible (at least in theory) to do what you want.

You’d need to start with a webhook from Glide to either Make/Zapier, and then pass the values from there to Canva via its API.
