Use this interactive demo to learn how to insert a clickable link into any Canva design element.

Quick summary

Adding a link in Canva lets you make any design element clickable, directing viewers to an external website or page. You can attach a hyperlink to text, images, or shapes in just a few steps using Canva's built-in toolbar.


Steps

  1. Choose an existing design you want to add a link to.
  2. Click the element — such as text, an image, or a shape — you want to hyperlink.
  3. Click the ellipse icon from the floating toolbar to open more options.
  4. Select 'Link' from the dropdown menu.
  5. Enter the URL or search for the website page you want to link to.
  6. Click 'Done' to confirm the link.
  7. The link is automatically added to your Canva page design and is ready to use.

📌 Why this matters

Adding hyperlinks to Canva designs transforms static graphics into interactive, clickable content — essential for presentations, social media graphics, and web-ready assets. Canva's built-in link feature lets designers attach any URL to text, images, or shapes without leaving the editor, streamlining the workflow for marketers and content creators. This capability is especially valuable for teams producing interactive PDFs, digital brochures, or linked infographics that drive traffic to external websites. Knowing how to add a link in Canva helps users maximize engagement and deliver richer, more functional design outputs.
