Hi Miikka,
Would be interesting to hear the use case here 👋🏼 Would you need just the "notes" or also text elements that are added to the canvas? The Canvas is meant to be a visual element and due to that we have not yet introduced export options for that.
If just the notes are used, have you used the Kanban widget?
We normally export all content to be analyzed with AI. And this can't be now done with canvas notes. We have to individually copy-paste them into an excel sheet.
The excel export including note author and content is something that we'll start planning!
Also interested to hear that would allowing AI prompting in Canvas help you in your case? We are also thinking of allowing moving Canvas notes to Kanban chat, would this make sense to you?
AI would need to read the canvas (background image) to be able to understand the placement and connection of the stickers. E.g., Participants placed something in the upper left corner for a reason. Just exporting the notes is a good start but then the facilitator needs to sort them out later to explain the positioning.
One way would be to export the canvas with the sticky notes as an image. But then the notes would need to be all opened and not overlapping.
