Canva integration
The taproute QR codes app places your dynamic codes straight into a Canva design · posters, flyers, packaging · at print resolution. What lands on the artwork is a real taproute code: the destination stays editable after printing, and every scan shows up in your analytics.
What it is
A small app that runs inside Canva. It lists the dynamic codes of the workspace you connect, and inserts the one you pick into the open design as a print-resolution image. Nothing about the code changes: the image encodes its https://tap2u.link short link (or your custom domain), so routing, analytics and every rule you gave it keep working exactly as they do anywhere else the code is printed.
The app is coming to the Canva Apps Marketplace · it is with Canva for review now, and this page will link the listing the day it is live.
Connecting your account
- In a Canva design, open the Apps panel and search for taproute QR codes.
- Press Connect. A popup opens on taproute: sign in, approve the connection, done. It is a standard OAuth grant · there is no API key to create or paste.
- Back in Canva, the app lists your codes. Pick one · or create it first in the dashboard and it appears in the list.
- The code lands on the canvas at print resolution. Scale and place it like any element; just keep the quiet zone (the white margin) clear, the same print-safety rule as everywhere else.
Plain and branded
On the free trial the app inserts plain black-and-white codes: they scan fine, stay dynamic, and are the same codes you see in the dashboard. Branded styling in Canva · your logo, brand colors, AI art designs · unlocks with any credit pack, same as the rest of the product: no tier to climb, any pack does it.
After printing
- The destination is not in the ink. The printed image encodes the code's short address, not the URL it points to · change the destination in the dashboard any time and every printed copy follows. No reprint.
- A restyle cannot break a print run. What a code encodes is written once, at creation; design edits change pixels, never the payload.
- Scans on a Canva-placed code appear in analytics and bill exactly like any other scan on the same code.
- Disconnecting the app changes nothing about your codes: they keep resolving and their scan history stays.
