Step 1 - Choosing a File

From the main Searchie dashboard locate the file you'd like add a custom thumbnail to and click on the file to access the File Manager.

Step 2 - Open the Canva integration

From here, click the Thumbnail tab in the File Manager to access the customization options.

Next, click on the Design on Canva button below the media thumbnail.

Step 4 - Create a thumbnail in the Canva window

You will be presented with the window shown below. From here you can access your own designs that have been saved to Folders in Canva by clicking the Folders tab at the bottom of the menu on the left side of this new window. You can also design a new thumbnail from scratch and Publish it to your Searchie media.

NOTE: If you're on the free plan for Canva, you will not have access to Folders. Instead, look for your saved designs inside of "All Your Designs" in the Canva Integration.

Click Publish in the top-right when you are done to save your design.
