Last updated on February 12, 2023 @ 8:43 pm

Adding a YouTube video to a Canva presentation is a great way to spice up your presentation and keep your audience engaged. Here’s how to do it:

First, open Canva and click on the “Create a design” button.

Then, search for “presentation” in the search box and select a presentation template size from the recommended list. You can also choose to create a custom-size presentation.

Once your canvas is already created, click on the Design tab and search for a presentation design template that you want to use. You’ll be able to choose from a variety of templates, or you can start with a blank canvas. You can then edit this template to your preference.

Once your template is ready, click on the Apps tab on the left menu and select “Youtube” from the options that will appear.

On the next page, click on the “Use” button to connect to the Youtube application.

Once Youtube is added to your Canva applications, select it and search for the Youtube video that you want to add to your presentation then drag it to your presentation template.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to insert a YouTube video into a Canva presentation, be aware that there are potential risks involved. The video may not play properly, or it may be blocked by the security features of Canva. Additionally, the video could contain inappropriate content that you do not want to be associated with your presentation.

Canva will pull up a preview of the video. You can then move and resize the video as needed. When you’re happy with how it looks, simply use the keyboard shortcut “Ctrl+S” to save your changes. Your YouTube video will now be in your Canva presentation!

Conclusion:

Adding a YouTube video to your Canva presentation is a great way to engage your audience and add some visual interest to your presentation. Simply open Canva, choose your preferred presentation template size, and select a design template in the Design tab. From there, click on the Apps tab and select “YouTube” from the list of applications. Once you’re connected to Youtube, search for the video that you want to add to your presentation and drag it to your canvas. You can then move and resize the video as needed. Your YouTube video will now be in your Canva presentation!
