The app API from Canva — 1 operation(s) for app.

Operations 1

Each operation below carries the questions people ask an LLM about it and the instructions they give an agent to run it. Generated by API Evangelist overlay

GET /v1/apps/{appId}/jwks Get an app's public signing keys · Get app jwks #
Ask an LLM
“Where do I get the public keys to verify JWTs sent to my Canva app backend?”
“What JSON Web Key Set does my app use for token verification?”
Tell an agent
Fetch the JSON Web Key Set for app {appId}.
Get the public keys my backend needs to verify JWTs from app {appId}.
