Updated: April 16, 2026

Use Canva to design a social post and then share it to your social media profiles through your Constant Contact account

If you use Canva to create graphics and emails, you can now design a social post within Canva and share it through your Constant Contact account! Once shared, you’re able to track the reporting like you would any other social posts that are created and sent from within Constant Contact.

  1. From your completed Canva design, click the Share button in the upper right-hand corner.
    Important: Constant Contact doesn’t support Instagram stories at this time. Your Canva post can include up to 1 image that has either a 4:5 (portrait) or 1.91:1 (landscape) image ratio, and can’t be larger than 8MB in order to post through Constant Contact.
  2. Select "Constant Contact" from the list of options.
    Note: If you don't immediately see it, click on the "See all" option and then search for "Constant Contact."

  7. Review the app permissions and click the Allow Access button. You're directed back to your Canva account, but before you can post you need to log into your new Constant Contact account, answer a few questions to complete your account registration, and then connect your Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok accounts.

From within your Constnat Contact account you can check the reporting for your social post to compare the results on each of the social profiles you shared it on. The post can also be copied and re-shared from within your Constant Contact account too!
