FAQ

Q: How does it bypass Cloudflare? The scraper uses curl_cffi with Chrome 131 TLS impersonation. This makes requests indistinguishable from a real browser at the TLS fingerprint level, so Cloudflare's WAF lets them through.

Q: Where does the data come from? All fields are extracted from the embedded window['bootstrap'] JSON blob on each template page, plus OpenGraph meta tags as fallback. This blob contains the complete rendered template data.

Q: Can I search for templates? Not in this version — you need to provide direct template URLs. To discover URLs, browse templates on canva.com and copy the URLs.

Q: Are colors accurate? Yes — colors come directly from the template's stored color palette in Canva's bootstrap JSON, not guessed from the HTML.
