Canva’s partnership with Cloudflare began in 2016, when Canva started using Cloudflare’s free DDoS protection and CDN. Today Canva uses nearly all of Cloudflare’s products, spanning use cases as diverse as remote application access, serverless development, and bot management.
You now have access to all the power of Cloudflare for your Canva Sites through the free hosting solution Cloudflare Pages. Hosting your Canva sites in Cloudflare is now incredibly easy with Canva Plugin.
Solution: Canva Plugin automatically move your Canva Site's code to Cloudflare Pages.
By harnessing the capabilities of Cloudflare workers, the Canva Plugin seamlessly migrates all the code from your Canva Sites to Cloudflare Pages.

What sparked the creation of this solution?
Hey there, I'm Beto, a Cloudflare Zaraz Certified Developer.
Like many of you, I loved the ease of creating stunning visuals with Canva Sites drag-and-drop interface. Since Zaraz integrates effortlessly with Cloudflare-hosted domains, I thought it would be a simple process to use it with my Canva Sites.
Unfortunately Canva doesn't allow connections through proxies, which prevented the automatic installation of Zaraz and its tracking pixels.
With the launch of Cloudflare Pages and Canva Plugin a perfect solution presented itself. Now, I can seamlessly host my Canva Sites directly on Cloudflare Pages, unlocking the full potential of Zaraz for a website that boasts both lightning-fast speed and captivating visuals.
