How to Edit a Social Media Image with Canva

This article covers editing a social media image using Canva.

Before you start: Make sure you've connected your account to Canva. See Getting Started with Canva in Evolved Office for one-time setup steps.

Steps

1. Go to your Content under Social.
   
2. Click the social post/image you want to edit.
   
3. Click Edit in Canva.
   
4. The Canva editor will open with your image loaded (standard size: 1080 x 1080). Make your edits — add text, logos, graphics, etc.
5. When you're finished, click the Evolved Office icon at the bottom of the left-hand navigation in Canva, then Save.
   
6. Choose whether to:
7. • Save as a copy — check this box to keep your original image untouched and create a new version, or
   • Overwrite original — leave the box unchecked to replace the existing image with your edits.
7. Once published, your edited image will appear on the social post — and will also update in your Asset Manager.

Tips

• You can also switch to a different image or design entirely while inside Canva — see How to Browse Your Evolved Office Library from Within Canva for details.
• Works with both free and paid Canva accounts. A few advanced photo tools (like background remover) require a paid plan.
• For help with specific photo tools (cropping, filters, background removal, etc.), see Canva's Photo Editor guide.
• For general Canva editor tips (image types, saving, etc.), see Getting Started with Canva in Evolved Office.
