Create, search, edit and export Canva designs and assets.

Official serverRemoteDesign & sites

1. Add the server

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "canva": {
      "url": "https://mcp.canva.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

2. Sign in

Cursor prompts you to sign in the first time a remote OAuth server is used. Canva is hosted by Canva, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.

3. Try it

Ask Cursor for something Canva can do. Create, search, edit and export Canva designs and assets. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.

· Remote servers take a url; local servers take command and args.
· Values can reference ${env:NAME} so secrets stay out of the file.
