Can I export Canva email templates to MailerLite?
Keep in mind, the Canva integration does not work with Canva email templates.
These templates are for creating designs inside Canva and cannot be migrated to MailerLite as email templates for the Drag & drop editor.
To use a Canva design in MailerLite, make sure you create an image or PDF design (not a campaign template) and export it to your MailerLite file manager.
In MailerLite, we have an HTML editor that allows you to upload custom email designs.
