To use this API, your integration must act on behalf of a user that's on a Canva plan with premium features (such as Canva Pro).
Users on the Canva Free plan have access to a limited trial. For more information, see Trial quotas.
</Availability>Starts a new asynchronous job to create a resized copy of a design. The new resized design is added to the top level of the user's projects (root folder).
To resize a design into a new design, you can either:
- Use a preset design type.
- Set height and width dimensions for a custom design.
Note the following behaviors and restrictions when resizing designs:
- Designs can be resized to a maximum area of 25,000,000 pixels squared.
- Resizing designs using the Connect API always creates a new design. In-place resizing is currently not available in the Connect API, but can be done in the Canva UI.
- Resizing a multi-page design results in all pages of the design being resized. Resizing a section of a design is only available in the Canva UI.
- Canva docs and emails can't be resized, and other design types can't be resized to a Canva doc or email.
- Canva Code designs can't be resized, and other design types can't be resized to a Canva Code design.
