Transcripts
this is how you use the brand new canva
module in make to automate the creation
of hundreds if not thousands of unique
images and texts in chat GPT that you
can then automate and make to post on
your Instagram or other social media
platforms you've probably seen these
types of posts everywhere on places like
Instagram because they work and they're
a great complement to your social media
strategy in this video I'll show you how
you build it step by step so you can get
rock and rolling and get started my name
is Jack and my YouTube channel and my
school Community all about three things
we're about the latest AI we're about
incredible automations but most
importantly we're about the stuff that
actually works so if you haven't already
grab that coffee and let's jump straight
in I'll start by showing exactly how
this works I'll give you a very simple
automation for you to Plug and Play and
get started with the new canva module so
for example let's say that we create 50
different unique quotes following this
prompt for Alex's latest book we would
download this into CSV this then comes
through to Cana and I'll show you
exactly how you do the step by step by
the way and we use a feature called
create that gives us all these different
images so it's exact same everything
else is hardcoded the image the
background and we can just change the
just change text and we can figure
anything want to if you want to change
multiple text it's super easy to do I'll
show you how you that in a second now
the cool thing about this new canva API
is the fact that now we can post to
social media from canva so we actually
don't need to download from Cana anymore
and upload it this is all done
automatically with the brand new canva
API so we start off with our tools
module that creates an increment for
each page this is then exporting the
design from canva directly from our bul
create we then upload to Dropbox make an
API call to get the image and then this
image will be posted automatically to
Instagram now the reason why this API
thing here is really cool with canva is
the fact that we can say hey run this
scenario every day every two days every
3 days so that once you create it in
canva it will run automatically with the
canva API what a lot of us wanted to see
was the ability to edit text within
canva to do that you need a developer
account so I'm going to do a video and
that in the future cover what that might
look like for the Pips of moment this is
something you can get started with right
now and start using your social media
platforms literally today so let's say
for example you wanted to get 50 of
these types of posts on Instagram and
let's say we wanted to do something with
Alexa Mery a really cool website by the
way is this website here called PDF
coffee where you can get the pdf version
of most books for the purposes of this
automation I'm going to show you how we
could take 50 quotes from Alex os's book
and turn them into Instagram posts so we
can start by giving it the following
prompt which is this based on this PDF
quote 50 quotes in the below format
innovate now plan later sometimes you
must invest then investigate use 125
characters maximum this is because of
the text length on canva make the quotes
valuable bite size information to digest
in short form content turn this into CSV
for me to export so what I do I then
just upload the book I wanted to analyze
and I've just uploaded the $100 million
offers book which is a phenomenal book
and exceptional and if you want to do
this for your own work maybe you want to
extract the you know the transcript of
your podcast maybe with your own books
this is an excellent way way for any
content you make to get into bite-sized
Clips so imagine you do a podcast with a
friend for 3 hours we could use this
just to draw out you know 20 30 4050
clips and again this could also be
automated I just wanted to give you
something really simple that you could
just get started with to get used to the
canva API I've got so many videos on the
channel in the school community that go
in depth to like the level 10 depth this
is just something really easy and fun do
you can get with to get started uh if
you just want a quick nice Automation
and to leverage what I think is quite a
cool feature in C so this is analyzing
the PDF once it's done that it's then
going to create 50 quotes for us so it's
going to be stuff and we let's check out
the file and see for ourselves we
download this file in the file we can
see action is a Kure for anxiety do this
first then improve what else we got
success in business is about practicing
practicing offers until you win blah
blah blah 50 quotes just like that
perfect so then guys then we come over
to canva you're going to select on logo
for the dimensions like so we're going
to get rid of this and then just design
this the way that you want the one that
I've seen working really well actually
is with this kind of background you see
so for example if I just copy this as a
for instance I'm going to come back over
but just design this in any style that
you want in any picture canva will also
let you match the color of the
background for consistency like that so
say this is the format that we like and
that we want all we would ever do guys
is you see in the bottom left here bulk
create we just simply click on bulk
create we come down to upload data we
then select the file from upload data
and what it's identified in the CSV is
quotes if I had multiple headings it
would have quote it could have author so
for instance I could have Alex hosi Lea
hosi Mr muu hosi and we could basically
change that every single post but I just
to keep this simple we're going to do
one variable field so what we click on
this we click on connect data and we
click on quotes and now essentially what
that's connected with is everything in
the quote column with this piece of text
now look if I put continue here and look
at this guys this has pulled through all
50 quotes that we had but I just say hey
generate 50 designs and then the magic
happens and the magic is basically
brings every single thing that we want
right here you see 46 47 perfect now
what we want to do is give this a
wonderful name so we'll call this hosi
quotes 100 million offers and like that
perfect now the next thing we need to do
is create scenario in make so let's head
over to make and build the scenario out
so the first thing you want to do guys
to make sure that you post one at a time
is use something called the increment
function so we click on tools and then
you're going to search for increment and
essentially what this will do is it
Returns the value one and then each time
it runs it just goes plus one so reset a
value never we don't need it for this
one and then we just click okay now the
next thing you want to do is add in the
canva module the beautiful brilliant
canva module I must admit one of the
things that I wanted to see with this
canva module was the ability to edit in
Cana that doesn't seem like it's
available unless you get down the make
an API call so I'm investigating that at
the moment and I look forward to sharing
some details on that when it's done so
in the Cana module what do we need we're
going to export a design then we're
going to upload a file and then get an
API to get the URL for that file and
then essentially it's just going to post
for you on autopilot so look we come
over exported design and basically it's
one click opens to new browser you log
in you're ready to go pick the folder ID
for me it's just the basics because I'm
a Savage I don't have my canva organized
in folders yet I know it's crazy oh my
goodness yeah if I if I drank less
coffees maybe I have more heads space to
do it then we need to pick the design ID
so the design ID is basically what we
called it so we call this homos quotes
100 million offers so let's check if we
can find that for Mery ques $100 million
offers
awesome now export type I want to put
PNG lossless now export as a single
image you can leave that as no for the
moment uh height you can just specify
the size if I just said just for
argument sake 500 I think realistically
you want about a th000 a th000 for this
and then you put the pages and then for
Pages guys all you do look at this right
we click on that and it's just the
output from increment function so the
first time a snar runs it'll be one then
two then three and you know what the
sequence looks like so we click on that
we click okay Ace now the next thing we
want to do to post on Instagram on make
what we need is a URL for the image add
in the upload file to Dropbox so we come
out a little bit click on Dropbox let's
go
for upload a file like so wonderful I'm
going to pick choose a folder it doesn't
really matter which one you pick but
pick anyone you like so I'll go for m 3
and then for the file we'll just put a
file name here which I would just say
call it the increment function so for
every new project you have so you have
file one file two file three file four
and then we've got the data and the data
is just going to be exactly what we've
seen from canva then we click okay now
the next thing you want to do guys is
the same thing again Dropbox and we're
going to put on here make an API call
okay awesome now what I want you to do
is put in the these exact details so
look I'm going to come over make an API
call I'll put this link in the
description for you so you can just grab
and go and get this you come over type
that in there perfect and then at the
bottom what we need to add in is
something in particular for this
particular thing which is going to be
this which is path path lower okay so we
come down again I'll put in the
description for you so you can just grab
and go and except for this time it's not
modle 24 it actually is let me bring it
over here so you get a good look at
it and we'll just find path glower which
is right there and then we click okay
and then finally guys let's go for
Instagram uh Instagram for business and
then we're just going to put here create
photo post like so and this is going to
load in the background and then it says
photo URL and then the photo URL what
what we need to do first to get the
photo URL is just run the scenario one
more time so un link that I'm going to
run this uh in particular so let me just
uh come here and run
once that's export the design excellent
the tool incremental function that
should be like a three or something and
this is fail because we didn't have a
proper file name so what you need to do
is i.png all right come so let's try
that one one more time uh and this
should work perfectly this time you know
pesky very particular about the pngs so
we're just going to run this once so we
can get the data to import into the
Instagram for business and then you
going be ready to rock and roll awesome
so then we're going to connect that
together Instagram for business we then
click on this and then we give it the
photo URL so what's the photo URL I hear
you saying so what we need to do
actually is delete this guy and bring it
back in again uh because sometimes if
you run a module beforehand it won't
prepopulate the items so again click on
create photo post
like so photo URL and you see now almost
by Magic the data has repopulated
awesome and you're just going to click
on link and then for caption for
argument sake I'm just going to put ABC
right here of course we can automate
that with loads of other beautiful fills
and automations of things which is
excellent so for example what we could
do is just add a chat GPT module to
analyze it and then create a text post
for us and then just put that into the
caption as well just to give us some
really good Instagram captions and I'll
show you how you do that in a second as
a bit of a bonus then we click okay and
then guys
you've basically created the entire
automation so let's run it one more time
and see if this works so what we would
do is we come down here to schedule
settings regular intervals and we just
say do it every day and what that means
is every day we'll get one post that
comes out with our cool homoi quot so
I'm going to hit run once tools
functions worked what number is it to
number four so basically this is now
working guys and if you s it correctly
image 4 should be what we now see on
Instagram and guys once you've got 50 60
100 500 a thousand of these just let it
go forever and every day you'll get a
brand new post and Chach BT is done a
phenomenal job of capturing the essence
of those quotes this is something truly
auto part and if I come over to
Instagram I can see grow or die business
is either growing or shrinking guys and
that is literally the entire Automation
in a nutshell and guys to get a unique
caption for this all you do is come here
like so going to click on chat gbt uh
just type in Vision analyzes image
Vision which is awesome and then we've
got a prompt then we just add the image
and again it won't image URL so again
just add the same thing that we had in
the last one which is here I'm going to
do a prompt and for that guys I'm just
going to shut over to my school
community and I'm going to grab the um
prompt sequence that we've got for
making something on Instagram so I'm
going to come down to agents uh let's
have a look at Instagram real quick and
then we'll can pull down the all the
code for that Instagram agent which is
excellent and then we're going to copy
all of this beautiful text we going come
back over now to chat gbt sorry excuse
me come back over to this now we've got
our prompt and then guys just make sure
that you select the model there in GPT
40 look to the
top excellent and then guys what we're
going to do is click okay like so and
then what we're going to do is bring
these in over here we're going to click
on this and then for the caption we'll
just going to put the result from chat
GPT and then we click okay and then we
right click and let's just call this
one Vision
caption okay cool with of course the
eyes CU it's all about Vision okay okay
and then we're going to save it and
we'll call this one canva build together
like
so sweet awesome now we align it and all
we do guys is we hit play and then we
watch it happen and Lally in the
background so run once tool increment
functions worked Cana is now exporting
the design which is excellent draw box
make CPI call the vision is now cor the
caption and now it's getting added
Instagram for business so when I load up
Instagram now I should see the brand new
image with a caption all completely done
on AO pallette from that one action at
the beginning and guys if I load it up I
can see we've got the actual image and
then we've got a caption for the
Instagram and guys it is as simple as
that and you just made an AI automation
with canva I know this video is just a
little bit shorter so let me know you
think Down Below on this kind of length
in any case guys have a wonderful week
and I will see you in my next video
