Public embeds
Canvases set as public embeds are accessible to anyone who knows the Canvas ID. This is useful for embedding in apps such as Notion, or Powerpoint.
Warning: Use caution when deciding what to put in public embeds.
To make a Canvas embed public, open the embed menu with Cmd + K
and type Embed Canvas
, then check the Public
checkbox.

Public embeds can be used without any token exchange with your backend:

You can also see the embed by going to https://embed.canvasapp.com/?canvas_id=[your_canvas_id], for example https://embed.canvasapp.com/?canvas_id=dYuVPi.
