# Canva Integration in Skykit Beam

This guide explains how to link your Canva account to Skykit Beam. Once connected, you can design presentations in Canva and export them to Skykit Beam as a **PDF** or **MP4**.

> ### Before you start

- **The Canva App is currently in beta testing. To register to be an early adopter please sign up** [**here.**](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdXfdD6MA0nPgxhCWMO1FZdoN3mcEgIin6gg1rFVjlwcy_hug/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=103124066607191828466)
- Your **Skykit and Canva accounts must use the same email address** (and that email must already have a Canva account).
- You must have access to **Skykit Beam** and permission to link integrations.
- If you have multiple Skykit accounts/tenants, know which one you want to export to.
